Treasure Hunting

Not the Yamashita
But of the source of everlasting
Not of El Dorado
But of the bread of life

Sunday's gospel reminds me
Of how we should seek his kingdom
Admission is free
But the choice is ours to decide

Am I ready to follow Christ?
Forgive - the true Christian way?
Love- that's equivalent as Jesus dying on that cross?
The short answer is silence.

With all the promise of happiness
Why do we stay in misery?
You may get wings, and sing praises to the Lord
But why do we choose to stay in this  polluted unheavenly place?

The answer is a deafening silence, much more deafening than the sound of silence itself.

Should I seek inside my heart
As they say the heart is where God's temple is
But all I found is emptiness
Maybe the Lord has left me
But maybe its me that choose
Not to look and find Him

Am I forever not going to find 
That infinite joy
That unending hymn
Happiness not based on earthly desires?
Truth that hurts noone
Boundless, eternal - will it ever be realized?

In God's time, He will show me, in His time.
Because I still believe.
