Poem by Chris Bunton
Tired
Running through the darkness
Confused as the killer comes
Everyday
Every night
The pain
The mystery of what comes next
Hounded.
Pursued.
Through the wilderness.
No rest for the wicked.
Just constant shame and misery.
As that killer,
called time; comes again and again
More and more he takes.
And more and more he devours
No one escapes his lust
Father Time
That serial killer comes for us all.

Does God Feel Distant?
He is with you. Believe it. There are times in our lives when we feel that God has abandoned us. It seems that He doesn’t hear and we don’t feel His presence or see His movements in our lives. I have experienced the same. God has opened my eyes to the reality of it, and…
