Spoken Word Poetry "Eyes Opened" Ben Falealili

Pasifika Voice event; Long Beach, CA 10/04/10 **ALL GLORY TO GOD**

I finished this piece the day of the event so i apologize for the mess ups. it's not perfect but it is definitely raw. camera person got a lil emotional hence the shaking... all goods! good lookin out Noelle! :)

God has truly set me free from the shame and pain that I've held in for 8 years. I am sharing my testimony with the world to serve as proof, proof that God is my light through those dark days, my comforter and ultimate healer of all the pain.

2Corinthians 1:3-5

3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort,
4 who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.
5 For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also abounds through Christ.
