Witness

 

Proverbs 14:5 New Living Translation (NLT)

5 An honest witness does not lie;

    a false witness breathes lies.

 

 

Witness

 

Enjoying attention of others

making it important in life,

as long as someone bothers

to notice me in my plight.

 

Is pride the force that drives me?

Is that the hunger deep inside?

To demonstrate all … but the "real me",

who wanders from side to side.

 

Is my witness than so shallow?

Can the fake of it be seen?

Is it than sin … that swallows

the positive of Christ in me?
