			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Luke 22:39-48</p>
<p>The Man Jesus of Nazareth son of Joseph and Mary walked and stood in the darkness to fulfill prophesies. The church of this darkness killed him hopping to prevent Him illuminating their contentment to dwell in darkness. They did not know as John recorded (<a class="zem_slink" title="John 1:1" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_1%3A1" rel="wikipedia">John 1:1</a>-9), that the Light from God had come and in dieing it began to shine (John 8:12).</p>
<p>&#8220;In this dark world we grope along the wall like blind men, we grope like those who have no eyes; we stumble at midday as in the twilight, among those who are vigorous <em>we are</em> like dead men&#8221; (Isaiah 59:10).</p>
<p>But our Christ said that no one killed Him but that He laid down His life freely, for us (John 10:18)                                         Matter of fact, if it had been known that by dieing he would shine those that orchestrated his death would not have attempted to kill him (1Co 2:8). Our Christ knew that the same God that gave him life would by plan give it back (Acts 4:10). Therefore, those of us that gladly and knowingly give up this life of living in the dark are recreated in Christ Jesus our Lord. We must understand that God through His son created the good paths before the foundation of the world and all we need do is by faith walk there in as the Spirit gives direction. (1Cor 2).</p>
<p>Christ Jesus is the light and if we walk in him; this is a fact of the Spirit and not all that say they are, are in Christ Jesus nor do they understand or comprehend the conversation of the Holy Spirit. If they did, they would know (Philippians 2:13):</p>
<p><sup>                 “13</sup> for it is God who is at work in you, both to will and to work for <em>His</em> good pleasure.”</p>
<p>Please meditate on this revelation and listen to these meaningful songs:</p>

<p>BUT FROM WHOM OR WHAT</p>
<p>I WANT TO FLY TO YOUR SIDE</p>
<p>AND HELP YOU</p>
<p>FIND ANOTHER WAY</p>
<p>THAT DOES NOT HURT.</p>
<p>THEN I HEARD A VOICE SAY;</p>
<p>“THEN FOR WHAT OR WHOM</p>
<p>DID I SUFFER</p>
<p>AND WHAT MAKES LIFE WORTH</p>
<p>THE SACRIFICE?</p>
<p>I WANT TO RUN A WAY</p>
<p>BUT TO WHAT REWARD</p>
<p>OR PRICE TO PAY,</p>
<p>WHAT LESSON LEARNED</p>
<p>WAS WORTH NO SLEEP</p>
<p>NO LEGS, ARM (S) SENSE OF TASTE OR SMELL?</p>
<p>I WANT TO RUN AWAY</p>
<p>BUT FROM WHOM OR WHAT?</p>
<p>THE ONE IN THE MIRROR</p>
<p>OR THAT SEEN FROM WITHIN ME,</p>
<p>THE LIES TOLD</p>
<p>THE REGRETS FELT</p>
<p>THE END THAT NEVER COMES</p>
<p>OR THE BEGINNING THAT NEVER STARTS?</p>
<p>I RUN A WAY</p>
<p>IN WHICH RAIN DOES NOT WASH AWAY…</p>
<p>TEARS CAUSE WEEDS TO GROW</p>
<p>BLOOD PICKLES MY SOUL</p>
<p>AND LIGHT REVEALS THE DARKNESS</p>
<p>STILL.</p>
<p>I SEARCH FOR A WAY TO RUN</p>
<p>AND A PLACE TO WHICH I MIGHT SOMEDAY ARRIVE</p>
<p>AND</p>
<p>  <strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">RUN NO MORE </span></strong></p>

and themselves?<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=sam373.wordpress.com&amp;blog=8996045&amp;post=844&amp;subd=sam373&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="center"><strong>I</strong></p>
<p>Beneath all the defenses</p>
<p>And the disguises that are not make-believe</p>
<p>There’s a person that wants to be noticed.</p>
<p>Why all the make-believe?</p>
<p>Why should I strive to force or employ these</p>
<p>Make-believe people to lie to me-</p>
<p>and themselves?</p>
<p>If they were to say, “Hi, how are you . . .?”,</p>
<p>They’d be liars.</p>
<p>Because they don’t really give a damn;</p>
<p>They don’t really care.</p>
<p>The world is not a figment of my</p>
<p>Imagination . . .</p>
<p>It should be.</p>
<p>I watch it on television, I know;</p>
<p>It seems so cold and alienated(ing);</p>
<p>But when I go outside,</p>
<p>I can’t seem to distinguish . . .</p>
<p>I thought I turned-off the make-believe</p>
<p>Before I left home?</p>
<p>There is no love thy neighbor;</p>
<p>There is no ‘til death do us part;</p>
<p>There is no helping hand;</p>
<p>No, there is no, “I stand by you</p>
<p>And with you”.</p>
<p>No!</p>
<p>I know ,</p>
<p>Cause I’ve been searching</p>
<p>For that real world</p>
<p>Or am I looking for a make-believe</p>
<p>World?</p>
<p>Where for every man there’s a woman</p>
<p>. . . a make-believe world in a real world</p>
<p>Or is it a real world in a make-believe</p>
<p>world . . .</p>
<p>?</p>
<p><strong>II</strong></p>
<p>Hey, would someone please love me;</p>
<p>Listen and want to understand . . .</p>
<p>Help me?</p>
<p>. . . why can’t they hear me!?</p>
<p>I, I hear them.</p>
<p>I’m so cold,</p>
<p>Won’t somebody hug me back . . .</p>
<p>That’s my pillow!?</p>
<p>But it’s still cold;</p>
<p>In the shining sun I seem to freeze!</p>
<p>?</p>
<p>Make-believe love,</p>
<p>She truly cares;</p>
<p>She loves me, she won’t leave me!</p>
<p>She helps me . . .</p>
<p>Make- believe . . .</p>
<p>?</p>
<p>I must wake –up;</p>
<p>I can’t stay here forever,</p>
<p>Even though, it’s warm</p>
<p>And the Sun shines</p>
<p>Her love washes my soul like rain from</p>
<p>Heaven</p>
<p>I’m not choosey . . .</p>
<p style="text-align:left;" align="center"> Believe that?<strong> </strong></p>
<p style="text-align:left;" align="center"><strong><br />
</strong></p>
<p>I must ask too much of this</p>
<p>Make real believe world.</p>
<p>Look, she’s looking at me?</p>
<p>No,</p>
<p>I must stop dreaming!</p>
<p>My name?</p>
<p>No,</p>
<p>You don’t want to know!</p>
<p>?</p>
<p>When you hug me like that . . .</p>
<p>It feels that 85<sup>o </sup>F, you,</p>
<p>But, there’s 6 inches of snow . . .</p>
<p>No, you aren’t . . . I, I’m afraid</p>
<p>You’re not for real . . .</p>
<p>You love me?</p>
<p>I must, wake-up . . .</p>
<p>But she feels so . . .</p>
<p>But dreams always seem real . . .</p>
<p><strong>III</strong></p>
<p>Faster, I’m almost, almost, almost;</p>
<p>Why, why can’t I -</p>
<p>Frustration!</p>
<p>The pain of reality has invaded my dream.</p>
<p>. . . I know, cause</p>
<p>I’ve been searching for the real world</p>
<p>Or am I looking for a make-believe world?</p>
<p>Where for every man there’s a woman</p>
<p>And the law is, love thy neighbor;</p>
<p>Here’s a helping hand,</p>
<p>Till death do us part</p>
<p>. . . a make-believe world</p>
<p>In a real world.</p>

<p><em>Dare I think</em></p>

Un sourire qui frappe les vides des ténèbres
Qui affligent mon âme encore;
Une touche tellement réelle -
Bien que nous ne se rencontrent jamais,
Ma solitude, elle vole.

Une lumière sur mon sentier et une lampe à mes pieds.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>«&#8221;Regarde-la,<br />
Un sourire qui frappe les vides des ténèbres<br />
Qui affligent mon âme encore.<br />
Une touche tellement réel si nous ne se rencontrent jamais-<br />
Ma solitude, elle vole.<br />
Ses yeux sont les étoiles du ciel,<br />
Ramené à terre pour être à moi,<br />
Une lumière sur mon sentier et une lampe jusqu&#8217;à mes pieds.<br />
Sa voix doth apaiser cette bête sauvage<br />
Cela transforme ma pêches intérieures à la tourmente. &#8220;</p>
<p>Dans un rêve<br />
Vos lèvres j&#8217;ose baiser<br />
Mais pas avant votre image fanée<br />
Dans une brume aromatique.</p>
<p>Comme je navigue sur cette mer de repos<br />
Je me baigne dans vos faibles profondeurs,<br />
Eviter la profondeur tranquille:<br />
Sachant bien que nous passons aux rendez-vous<br />
Nous devons garder à la fois.<br />
Et je dois le monter sur les vents et les vagues du temps;<br />
Peu importe ce que les erreurs de jugement<br />
Ni ce que je suis arrivé rapides,<br />
Je n&#8217;oublierai jamais ces moments scintillement<br />
Comme je l&#8217;ai passée à travers vous-<br />
Yon étincelante mer de tranquillité.</p>
<p>Dans notre passage bref mais persistante,<br />
Laissez-nous la gloire de notre union,<br />
Non de la forme physique<br />
Mais du lien spirituel;<br />
Déplorant pas -<br />
Amour jamais réalisé,<br />
Jamais pleuré.</p>
<p>Je n&#8217;oublierai jamais cet aperçu,<br />
C&#8217;est intime, si le regard infini;<br />
Lorsque la déesse de la lumière<br />
Lui a permis derniers rayons persistante à briller<br />
Sur votre visage enchanté.<br />
Et mon esprit a dit à mon coeur<br />
Comme il a reçu ta grâce. . .</p>
<p>«&#8221;Regarde-la,<br />
Un sourire qui frappe les vides des ténèbres<br />
Qui affligent mon âme encore;<br />
Une touche tellement réelle -<br />
Bien que nous ne se rencontrent jamais,<br />
Ma solitude, elle vole.<br />
Ses yeux sont les étoiles du ciel<br />
Ramené à terre pour être à moi,<br />
Une lumière sur mon sentier et une lampe à mes pieds.<br />
Sa voix doth apaiser cette bête sauvage qui transforme<br />
Ma paix intérieure à la tourmente. &#8220;</p>
<p>YON MOUSSEUX mer de la Tranquillité<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><em><br />
</em></strong></p>
<p>I was falling into the abyss when your voice I heard</p>
<p>And my soul you caught by reminding me that I’m not alone.</p>
<p>Oh, to be loved as the creator intended each to be.</p>
<p>And that none should fall by the way as a song unsung.</p>
<p>Never missed nor sometimes thought of</p>
<p>But remembered</p>
<p>And that memory acted upon.</p>
<p>What a feat to undertake;</p>
<p>To reach out into the darkness,</p>
<p>To raise one’s soul out of the time line</p>
<p>And glare into the universe that is all encompassing</p>
<p>To glimpse a shooting star,</p>
<p>Which was and is my soul.</p>
<p>And with determined intent you pressed that electronic trigger</p>
<p>And snared me with a tagline</p>
<p>Anchoring me to your loving concern</p>
<p>You redirected my trajectory</p>
<p>By reminding me of the whole of which I am a part</p>
<p>And as a shining star you’ve become that beacon</p>
<p>That beckons me home.</p>
<p>Home</p>
<p>The whole of which I am a part</p>
<p>And to know that when I am not</p>
<p>I will be missed.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>H</p>
<p>The woman Eve should have been<br />
Representing the woman<br />
All women should be<br />
Willing to submit<br />
Having submitted totally to God<br />
The Holy Spirit<br />
And Jesus the Christ<br />
The Holy armor of God<br />
The home of God<br />
And His redeemed creation<br />
Yielded to the will of God<br />
As servant<br />
Willing in all ways<br />
To be an instrument<br />
In the hands of God.</p>
