You who turn judgment to wormwood, and leave off righteousness in the earth,
Seek him that maketh the seven stars and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death into the morning, and maketh the day dark with night: that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The LORD is his name...
Amos
"Tell God all that is in your heart, as one unloads one's heart, its
pleasures and its pains, to a dear friend. Tell Him your troubles, that
He may comfort you; tell Him your joys, that He may sober them; tell
Him your longings, that He may purify them; tell Him your dislikes,
that He may help you to conquer them; talk to Him of your temptations,
that He may shield you from them; show Him the wounds of your heart,
that He may heal them; lay bare your indifference to good, your
depraved tastes for evil, your instability. Tell Him how self-love
makes you unjust to others, how vanity tempts you to be insincere, how
pride disguises you to yourself as to others. If you thus pour out all
your weaknesses, needs, troubles, there will be no lack of what to say.
You will never exhaust the subject. It is continually being renewed.
People who have no secrets from each other never want for subjects of
conversation. They do not weigh their words, for there is nothing to be
held back; neither do they seek for something to say. They talk out of
the abundance of the heart, without consideration, just what they
think. Blessed are they who attain to such familiar, unreserved
intercourse with God."
--Fenelon
Have you ever really thought about how greatly loved we are? Think about it. The Great Creator of all things sent the only son He had to this dark earth to save us. Who are we? Dusty little disrespectful children who think we know the best way to go. Who is He? A Father who greatly loves us. When I think about it I tremble and the tears come because it's an overwhelming thought to be loved so much. Thank you Heavenly Father, thank you Jesus. Help me to love.
To the great I Am --Creator of the Universe
Thank You for saving us today!
Thank You for showing Yourself strong!
Thank You for saving our dusty bodies
once again!
The teachings of God are perfect;
they give new strength.
The rules of God can be trusted;
they make plain people wise.
The orders of God are right;
they make people happy.
The commands of God are pure;
they light up the way.
Respect for God is good;
it will last forever.
The judgments of God are true;
they are completely right.
They are worth more than gold,
even the purest gold.
They are sweeter than honey,
even the finest honey.
By them your servant is warned.
Keeping them brings great reward.
People cannot see their own mistakes.
Forgive me for my secret sins.
Keep me from the sins of pride;
don't let them rule me.
Then I can be pure
and innocent of the greatest of sins.
I hope my words and thoughts please you.
God, you are my Rock, the one who saves me.
King David
God is patient
God is kind
God does not envy
and He does not boast
God is not proud
God is not rude
and He is not self seeking
He is not easily angered
God keeps no record of wrongs
God does not delight in evil
but He rejoices in the truth
God always protects
He always trusts
He always hopes
God always perseveres
God never fails!
Hate will save an unborn baby
and turn around after that baby is grown
and hang that grown baby from a tree
by a noose around his neck
just because of the color of his skin
all done in the name of God!
..........things that need to be said.
Change is blowing in the wind
can you feel it?
change is blowing
because
hate has been our friend too long
way to long
and hate makes everything stand still
hate keeps things from changing
generation after generation after generation after generation
hate warps little children and big children
generation after generation after generation
change is blowing in the wind tonight
I can feel it
I can feel it this time
because
this time I've chosen not to hate
She told him she'd rather fix her makeup
Than try to fix what's going on
But the problem keeps on calling
Even with the cellphone gone
She told him that she believes in living
Bigger than she's living now
But her world keeps spinning backwards
And upsidedown
Don't say so long, and throw yourself wrong
Don't spend today away
Cuz today will soon be
Gone, like yesterday is gone,
Like history is
Gone, just trying to prove me wrong
And pretend like you're immortal
She said he said live like no tomorrow
Every day we borrow
Brings us one step closer to the edge (infinity)
Where's your treasure, where's your hope
If you get the world and lose your soul
She pretends like she pretends like she's immortal
Don't say so long
You're not that far gone
This could be your big chance to makeup
Today will soon be
Gone, like yesterday is gone,
Like history is gone,
The world keeps spinning on,
Your going going gone,
Like summer break is gone,
Like saturday is gone
Just try to prove me wrong
You pretend like your immortal your immortal
We are not infinite
We are not permanent
Nothing is immediate
We're so confident
In our accomplishments
Look at our decadence
Gone, like Frank Sinatra
Like Elvis and his mom
Like AL Pacino's cash nothing lasts in this life
My highschool dreams are gone
My childhood sweets are gone
Life is a day that doesn't last for long
Life is more than money
Time was never money
Time was never cash,
Life is still more than girls
Life is more than hundred dollar bills
And roto-tom fills
Life's more than fame and rock and roll and thrills
All the riches of the kings
End up in wills we got information in the information age
But do we know what life is
Outside of our convenient Lexus cages
She said he said live like no tomorrow
Every moment that we borrow
Brings us closer to the God who's not short of cash
Hey Bono i'm glad you asked
Life is still worth living, life is still worth living
