In this spoken‑word piece, the narrator contemplates the nature of holiness and the need for truth to settle within the heart. He describes moments of fleeting insight that might hold the answers he seeks, and acknowledges past mistakes of yielding to personal desires. The speaker wrestles with the tension between using his intellect and his emotional ups and downs, while sensing divine signs that contrast with worldly messages. He reflects on growing up in a culture of taking rather than giving, and emphasizes the difficulty of change but insists that preserving faith is paramount.

Chapters

About holiness. Time for words of truth to sink in. A chance to make a change. Sometimes a thought falls into my mind. Try to catch it before it slips away. Could be the answer I've been looking for. Some good advice. Heaven sent my way. I have made mistakes giving into my desires. I try my best to use my head, but I have my ups and downs. There could be a sign in front of my face and the world around says it's not the way. They're the ones making a big mistake, 'cause the Lord is talking to us every day. I wanna give, but I grew up in a world of take. It's hard to change, but the chief thing is not to lose faith.
