you ask why i scream

You ask why I scream

I ask why you scream.
Why do you scream at sports? You even scream when they are on the TV. They can’t hear you, yet still you scream.
Why do you scream at amusement parks? It does nothing, but possibly hurt your throat. The rides will continue on the same whether you scream or not.
Why do you scream when you see a bug? It’s smaller than the palm of your hand or the sole of your shoe, yet you scream.
Why do you scream when you are angry?

The answer is this… You scream because you are excited, passionate. You scream because you are a part of something more. You scream because something is not as you would like or expect it to be. You scream because you want and need to be heard.

My answer is the same.

I scream because I am excited and passionate. I have the greatest gift in the world- someone who loved me so much before I was ever even conceived that He died to save me. I am passionate in spreading the news that He did this not only for me, but for absolutely anyone willing to trust in Him. I am part of something more than me. Something is not as I would like to expect it to be- not everyone is accepting the gift of life through Jesus that is better than anything imaginable. I want and need to be heard, so I scream.
