We’ve one life to live, so take no day for granted
Sow words of life and bloom where you’re planted
With love and humility, pour into others gladly
For service is the key that unlocks, the joy in life’s journey

To live a Christ centered life, is our calling
To find and live His will, is truly fulfilling!
Commit your way to Him; be patient, while He works
Trust Him beyond what you see, and in spite of what lurks

Seize today! while embracing tomorrow
Free yourself from the chains of past sorrow
You may falter, and at times you may stumble
Don’t dwell in condemnation, don’t grumble

Live life to the fullest, treasuring God’s goodness
Believing in His, unfailing love and promise
And though you may be, hindered by strife
In spite of this, choose today, to enjoy life!

“Don’t feed the animals”
Stated clearly on the sign
What harm can be done?
I’ll feed them just this one time

Like a docile fool, you play into their hands
Only to be pursued, by their further demands
A one time meal, now a feeding frenzy
To satisfy these animals, that will always be hungry

Message

To feed the flesh is to deprive the spirit;
To increase the flesh is to decrease the spirit;
What animals are you feeding today?

Today I lost the battle because my armor failed me

I failed the test because the test failed me

I am at war with my body but it is my body that antagonizes me

I keep going around the same mountain because this mountain pursues me

I failed the test again but….

To be true…..it wasn’t the test that failed me

I failed me…..

By succumbing to sin and granting it power over me

I failed me….

By believing Satan’s lies and allowing him to entrap me

I failed me….

By not trusting God beyond what I could see

I failed me….

By silencing my spirit and applauding my flesh to victory

I failed me….

By choosing the path I thought, was easy

Today I lost the battle because I chose to fight it alone

Victory could have been mine, had I just taken it to His throne

The truth is…
Many may seek but few will find
Escaping the many, as she can’t be defined
Yet freeing the few, as she unlocks the door to a closed mind

The truth is…
She holds the key to life’s many mysteries yet is a mystery herself
For while she is costly, she is free
And those who have her, don’t know they do
While those who don’t, think they do
And those that don’t want her, deny her value

The truth is…
She is an object of objectivity
But a subject for subjectivity
And her hard judgment knows no impartiality

The truth is…
Freedom is her fruit
And confusion her worm
For peace abounds in those that rest in her

The truth is…
As brutal as the battles that are fought to defend her credibility
Her power can divide two friends that proclaim an opposing reality
And finding no common ground but one, that leads to a path of animosity

The truth is…
She is truth
An eternal spring with one source, but many offspring
Polluted over time and aimlessly wandering
And though we may dress her in many a disguise
She endures forever and knows no compromise
