Who Am I?

Who am I when the world completely halts?
No TV,
PC,
P3,
DVD, or
Social media.

Just me.

No car to go,
to the store or show;

Just me.

Do I know who I am?
When all is quiet and confinement is my stay?
Will I be able to distinguish my way, The way?

When even the darkness darkens still,
Will I see the Light?
Which alone can keep me from fright.

Trauma within, for many a year.
I failed to know,
Pushed far deep down below.

Who am I, alone? Just me?

A prisoner? 
No, I am a sojourner, here.
I'm His,
Visiting, I see.
Actually free.

Laugh O' my soul, sing aloud.
And watch the darkness move on as a cloud.
Whoever follows Me will not walk in darkness
but will have the Light of life (John 8:12)

O' soul, get quiet.
For when the vapor is gone and all that is left is a faded flower,

I, who is me, and am in He,
without doubt, will see...Him
in that triumphant hour.

Set worry aside, and let Faith take her stand,
for I am His now and also be will when the journey here ends.
