When I was a kid, I had the opportunity to attend a number of camps, like the ones our kids are having. But the ones that I have attended were mostly non-educational. They could be sports, leadership and motivational. I must say as a result of those, I did improve a little. It was just that my confidence level will increase, slightly.
I was once asked, along with the other members of our team, to go out searching for an object, preferably organic, that would best represent ourselves, individually. Well, guess what I had chosen? A rock! The trainer went puzzled and everybody else laughed. But as for me, that's the thing that would best represent me. And the trainers just couldn't wait to listen to how I would express it.
Well, my opening statement went like this. "My dad told me that these rocks, they never stop praising God. They never stop chanting God's name deep in their silence!" And the room went quiet, and everyone sort of stunned by my statement, and they just can't wait to listen to more of it.
And I continued.
And it is as for that, that the rock carries with him some huge responsibilites. And he has power too.
He is very powerful, yet he is ever so protective...
He forms layers to support the overlying soil that is rich in resources that make life possible. People just step on them, and discard things all over them.
He keeps people warm while the surrounding gets cold. The water and the air went cold, the rock remains hot longer.
He is rugged and ugly, but some of his types are precious.
His hardness can destroy but can made out a shelter too.
He protects people from the motlen magma underneath it by forming the earth's crust
He lives on land and in the seas as well
He made the highest peak on earth
He has vibrations of many sort (the way people use crystals to make bracelets etc.)
He is the best shape, yet some people find it very artistic.
So abundant, yet so unnoticed
His layers and formations tells us history, he keeps records of the earth
He is so powerful and just how often would he....
make a hole and sinks people in?
rattle and rumble that makes soil sort of flow like water?
subside and rub along cracks to shake to world?
suddenly protrude and rise to the sky?
He doesn't often do that, just because he obeys God who wants him to be the protector of life that blossoms on his chest.
All I can remember, the entire room went quiet for a while after I was done. I got no critic and I received no comments from anyone. I would have been the weirdest kid that day!
Everbody else got flowers, leaves and twigs.
