You ever get that weird conviction/uneasiness feeling? The one that just comes out of nowhere? Tonight I was driving back to school from home since I needed to get some more work done in the lab before tomorrow. I'm in the car, listening to Curtis "the Voice" Allen rap it up about theology and Gospel, when all of a sudden I start feeling like something's wrong. I can't explain it, I don't know why I started feeling this way, but I started to wonder if it was conviction of some sort. Like whether or not God was telling me that something needed to change in my life...

When I got to school, I sat in my car for a little while and just prayed for His revelation and direction. Though I didn't get an immediate answer, it's something that I will probably pray about more.

When I got out of the car, I was reminded of something from when I was a kid. When I was in early middle school, I stayed home by myself for the first time one evening. Though I was okay about it, there was some show on TV about a kid being home alone and oblivious to something tragic that had happened to his family. That freaked me out. I dunno why I did, but I started praying that my family would be okay and that they would make it home safely. At the end I added that if God would bring them home safely, that I would never ask anything from God ever again, and that He would never have to answer a single prayer after that. Fortunately, God didn't listen to that part of the prayer because a few years later I prayed to Him for salvation and He answered me.

Have you heard of the band, Seven Places?
I'm sure you have...but your entry reminds me of their last track of their first CD, called Awakening. It's quite an alarming conviction. It just explains how Jesus bled for us in 7 places, but the way they said it on the track, it was powerful.
