What Is It Inside Him

What is it inside him
  that won't let a man rest
That propels him forward
  to pass every test

Is it a voice
  or some type of surge
Where does it come from 
  this burst, this urge

Though I can't feel it stir
  I know that it's there
It must be God's Presence
  showing He cares

Exactly, man is without excuse because God is conscious in all of us.

A mini-sermon indeed, Gershon! As we used to say in the Air Force, "that'll preach"! Bob

I often wonder Gershon, but it's certainly there, That spiritual boot up the rear that we sometimes need. Tom

Maybe you can be CEO of a new company, Tom -- "Spirit Boots." As you put it, your boots will deliver 'a spiritual boot up the rear!' Love the comment. Thanks, Gershon
