(no subject)
i wrote this today.. its pretty much about everything ive been feeling.. about peoples actions that bring others down whether they know it or not.. its something God has relaly been communicating to me. what do i do that brings other people down? and what excuses do i make to justify myself in maintaining those actions? its basically addressed to me.. im sure someone will think its addressed to them but in reality its to me.. im really exploring the thought of my Christian walk and "practicing what i preach" and not just saying wel i dont care and i hope they get over it.. i hope it speaks to someone and not just myself..
Profit
What gives a man value?
And who names that price?
What makes a man shine?
Where does luster fade?
“What does it profit
To gain the whole world
And forfeit your soul?”
This the Master says.
So now I look around
I see the pain and hurt
Silent flows of blood
And where is the gain?
The looks cut so deep
Those passing glances
Turn to deadly stares
We don’t even blink
Words behind her back
Your threats to his face
Do us this favor
And slit our throats instead
Where is the reference?
Please show me, show me
Help us justify
The pain we cause others
Who is innocent
Tearing others down?
For personal gain
That self righteous joy
Where then, is the gain?
Every word we say
All fruit we gather
Shows the world our hearts
Will you drive the nails
Through the Master’s hands?
Or will you show them that
His love never fails?
Glorify the One
Who humbled Himself
In our words and deeds
Shine His light to all
Holy is Your Name
Keep us from darkness
Yours is the kingdom
Your will be done
Amen.

Your Brain is 46.67% Female, 53.33% Male
Your brain is a healthy mix of male and female
You are both sensitive and savvy
Rational and reasonable, you tend to keep level headed
But you also tend to wear your heart on your sleeve
What Gender Is Your Brain?
thought that was pretty obvious... but most obvious things need reiteration
