Smoke & Mirrors

Confusion


The blight of a conscious mind.


A pox upon a faithful spirit.


able to comprehend
and reason
like nothing else in creation

 

Yet

some say to reason about creation

to ask questions of the creator

is the same
just as kin

as to question the creator.

 

And that is said to be most horrific of a sins.

Confusion

 

We lean not on OUR OWN understanding.
We walk by FAITH and NOT BY SIGHT.


How could we ever get to true understanding if we did not question
the flaws of
and in
OUR OWN
and seek higher than it?

Higher than those around us that claim to know.

 

If told to move
one has to ask

“Where?”

 

otherwise we remain still.

By faith we ask
By faith we receive
By faith we walk.

 

Confusion

not question

 

is the enemy of faith

 

Confusion

not question

 

opens the door for ignorance and doubt.

Confusion is the dark
Question is the door leading the way
Faith is the answer that brings understanding and revelation.

 

The light is not blissful ignorance but a faithful knowing
to any question
we receive
a faithful answer

All will be made clear
seek and you will find
knock and the door will be opened

 

Ask and it will be given to you.

D.N.A

In spite of present pain
future frustration


Do you still smile?


In the face of Danger
Disaster
And that which would bring desolation
Do you laugh
maybe even dance?

In the midst of chaos
Corruption and confusion


Do you remain
Calm, cool and collective?


When it presses upon your back
To the point near break


When it stands at the very gates of your soul
Ready to capture your mind
claim your body as it’s very own

Do you not fear?


Knowing to whom the temple truly belongs.

When everything is gone
Time has pulled away
The same as the ocean pulls the sand


Will you know who you are?
Will you understand who I am?


You are my sons and daughters


The blood that flows in your veins
The blood that freed every captive
Made clean every stain
is the very same blood that warms your body
And opens your mouth to sing


It is my blood that is in you

It commands you to dance
Especially in the rain.

2.3

Darkness retreats to the background in your presence

Becoming canvas for whatever you desire

 

Tonight,

This cold night

 

From high above

you glow

If I could reach

I’m sure You would be the warmth I’m seeking

 

Tonight

This cold night

 

A light mist falls in front of you

Extending your reach

Dancing and bending

Your rays reach down to me

Amongst And Between

The dark

 

Tonight

This cold night

 

Shadows in valleys collect in mass against you

Against the thought of you

Against even a rumor of the thought of you

 

Tonight

This cold night

 

Your light shines on and through me

What they do

Can not stand in your path

 

Tonight

This cold night

 

I have no thought of fear

No feeling of shame.

Crying Savior

A tear of blood ran down his face.

For man, all pain and suffering had been absolved while for him, all pain and suffering he was about to bear.

The tears fled leaving only blood, blood of the world, blood of his.

His blood to shed for the world, his blood to shed until death so that life could be eternal.
