1. The Spirit of the Living God. How holy thou art in Glory shod, residing deep in the breast of God. So gentle, so peaceful, that great rushing wind, transforming men delivered from sin. Now abiding God with us, the Paraklketos,* the Dunamis.*' That river so... (posted by Rodney 2 years 286 days ago.)

2. The Courtroom in Glory I felt my neck tighten and I started to sweat, I sat there fidgeting my brow was all wet. I had been there alone to face all my crimes, my earth time had ended, there's no vital signs. I corrected my posture and sat up erect, ... (posted by Rodney 3 years 89 days ago.)

3. The Eyes Of The Lord I sat at that console to monitor crime, the survielliance so detailed I spotted a dime. Monitoring people just passing by, not a clue that I'm watching, that eye in the sky. Cameras all over, many video screens, I see all at... (posted by Rodney 3 years 94 days ago.)

4. Labels, Masks and Crutches. The alarm clock rang so here I go, another day, another show. Looking about to face this task, I reach the night stand and grab my mask.

5. The Rains came that Day The storm thundered over the mountain range, many creatures nestled under the shelter of the dark forest, watching has the storm passed by.

6. You are What you Eat. Consumption, consumption, mass consumption, more intake, more intake, there's no reduction. Mass markets absorbing and taking in, violence, destruction-- the wages of sin.

7. Breaking the Cycle I'm breaking the cycle, oh I will not do that, I'm breaking the chains, and trouncing the traps. I'm firm, I'm committed, I hold the solution, I will not retract my new resolution. Man that sounds good, I think I'm on track, ... (posted by Rodney 3 years 141 days ago.)

8. Pro-Choice? Hmm. The power of choice was given to man, I want to be clear, so please understand. A God given gift, freely bestowed, no strings were attached, not a thing to withhold. Mankind although given, this freedom to choose, abused this great... (posted by Rodney 3 years 171 days ago.)

9. No One Seems Thankful N o one seems thankful we always complain, concerned about sales and Thanksgiving parades. We push and we push to get our own way, forgetting the meaning of this special day. Seldom we're thankful for all He has done, complaining... (posted by Rodney 3 years 182 days ago.)

10. Esau; the Saga of Seeking Acceptance. The saga of seeking acceptance from the things we do. I want to examine the relationship of one of two brothers in the bible, Esau.

11. The Earth is Sullied The earth is sullied, her soils unclean, blood has been shed, her innocence gleaned. From Adam to present that ground has been spoiled, to reap the earth's harvest men are subject to toil. Bloodshed more bloodshed piled on, some... (posted by Rodney 3 years 235 days ago.)

12. I See Them Walking..... Deep in darkness locked away, chains have enslaved them day after day. Troubles and torments regrets from the past, how heavy the chains, how tight its grasp. Longing for freedom these prisoners cry, disguising their fears not... (posted by Rodney 3 years 248 days ago.)

13. A Matter of the Heart The Arm of the Lord reached down to Earth, scooping up dust giving man birth. With skillful design and very much thought, the hands of the Godhead gave man a heart. That heart was glowing filled with God's light. The man... (posted by Rodney 3 years 357 days ago.)

14. My Soul is Tormented My Soul is tormented and I cannot take flight, alone in a room overwhelmed in the fight. My struggle goes on night after night, no relief only pain, so goes my plight. Perhaps, I'll sleep early and fool all my pain, but the... (posted by Rodney 4 years 33 days ago.)

15. The End is Upon Me The end is upon me for all that I've done, surrounded by enemies who think they have won. We've got him now, there's not a way of escape, the curtains drawn while the cords pull the drapes. Hordes upon hordes from the enemies camp... (posted by Rodney 4 years 47 days ago.)

16. Her Face was of Beauty Her face was of Beauty Her face was of beauty when she entered the room, glowing and glowing that beauty consumed. I thought in my heart while entranced by her gaze, Hoping she'll come to me, before we part ways. her smile... (posted by Rodney 4 years 51 days ago.)

17. From the Pits of Despair From the pits of despair my soul shall arise. From the ash heaps of my past my soul shall arise.

18. Praise to our God Your Throne O God is from everlasting to everlasting. O Ancient of Days King of all Ages. The Highest heavens can not contain, Your Glory, Your Power nor Your Name. High in the heavens above all the rest, the sons of men you... (posted by Rodney 4 years 144 days ago.)

19. The True meaning of Christmas The true meaning of Christmas we have truly forgot, that a son was born, the One and Only begot.

20. He promised me joy..... He promised me joy in the midst of pain. He promised me shelter to shield from the rain. He promised me strength but at times I am weak.

21. That Cool Crisp Breeze The sun in its splendor was going away, the autumn winds blew chasing Fall leaves that day. The cool crisp breeze was echoing change, for homes in the city, for homes on the range. The colors of rust, yellow, orange and brown, ... (posted by Rodney 4 years 203 days ago.)

25. The Curse of Divorce. The curse that I call Divorce. Mediating on Memories stuck in the Past, rehearsing the thoughts of a time that has passed. Growing old together that's what we thought, but the papers are signed so other lives they have sought. ... (posted by Rodney 4 years 237 days ago.)
