    Incorporeal

    The Immaterial cannot change the material without interacting with the material The only way to interact with the material is through the properties of the material To assume the properties of the material The Immaterial has to become the material Though He was rich, yet for your sakes He...

    Justified

    I am not a patient man But only in You I know the right time I am not a just man But only in You I recognize the true crime I am not a willful man But only in You I know when I need to act I am not a logical man But only in You I reason upon a fact I am not an honest man But only in You I...

    Prayer

    Ringing of the call I’m hesitant to take silent flow between my lips my prayer is the voice that says hello A rush of blood upon a memory retrieved silent flow between my lips my prayer is the conquest of my youth An angry inner dialogue that was never had silent flow between my lips my...

    Reality

    I listen to the world as if through the water I see the world as if through the glass I touch the world as if with the glove Everything is an abstraction Everything is a shadow Everything is a type The world remains distant as long as I’m distant from You, the only closeness of my life...

    Dismissed

    Thank you. All praise to the Lord. If there is a slight bit of talent it’s all His merciful gift to me. I simply let it come out in hopes of touching other people in a positive way.

    Dismissed

    Only the immediate only the surface deep apparently superb yet terribly superfluous that’s all we share and want Ah, that unanswerable question that sometimes bounces off our ears without ever going in Why? Is it a lack of comfort at the face of things unknown? Or perhaps our boredom by...

    Personhood

    How many of us truly know, brothers and sisters, who and how we ought to be? I do, but for myself I lack the courage and the know-how to be that person. Only You can take me there, my Lord. Without you I am nothing. I am an abstract notion of what could and could have been, a mere reflection...

    Job

    Then Job arose, tore his robe, and shaved off the hair of his head; and he fell to the ground and worshiped, saying,† “Naked I came from my mother's womb, and naked shall I return. The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away. As it seemed good to the Lord, so also it came to pass. Blessed be...

    Christianity is often accused of dogmatism, but it is the science that is far more dogmatic with its teachings. It rejects apriori all that doesn’t align with its doctrines. There is definitely an agenda.

    Children

    We will stare back at you from your history books, the children of the future. I wonder, in my floating dreams made of mist and fog, what will you be like, the children of the future. Will your tears be of joy because ours were those of sorrow? Will your hearts be filled with love because ours...
