<p>He’s thinking</p>
<p>About the answer</p>
<p>About which way</p>
<p>That he should go</p>
<p>Then he finds it</p>
<p>I release him</p>
<p>On the very first step</p>
<p>I relax him</p>
<p>Telling good boy</p>
<p>Then I pet him on the neck</p>
<p>Never forceful</p>
<p>Always mindful</p>
<p>Never angry</p>
<p>Or full of pride</p>
<p>Make sure that</p>
<p>I support him</p>

<p>He’s got a whole lot of leg.</p>
<p>He can make a cow beller</p>
<p>He can make a cow beg.</p>
<p>I sure like this old mount</p>
<p>He got a heart of gold</p>
<p>I aint gonna send him to the killer</p>
<p>When he gets a sway back and old.</p>
<p>I think God might be a cowhand</p>

<p>It sets up a temple</p>
<p>I like to call self</p>
<p>It tells me to worship</p>
<p>At somewhere else</p>
<p>Like a horse</p>
<p>Like a ranch</p>
<p>Like a dollar or anything.</p>
<p>My temples have names</p>
<p>That the poisoning brings.</p>
<p>I have no true friends</p>
<p>I have left them behind</p>
<p> You can say this poison</p>
<p>Is a making me blind?</p>
<p>And when the quake comes</p>
<p>And it all falls down</p>
<p>Cause I put this temple,</p>
<p>on bad ground.</p>
<p>So, I thank you my God</p>
<p>For Helping me see.</p>
<p>These temples I have built</p>
<p>That tends to blind me.</p>
<p>And please keep my mind</p>
<p> The only temple I should know</p>
<p>The temple Of “Jesus”</p>

Press on to your calling in Christ. Remember when they mocked him with the thorn of Crowns. When they told him if he was God to come off the cross. When they gave him vinegar to drink. He said not a word. God has made his name the most honored name in the history of man. He didn't have to fight mockers or the backstabbers when talked about him in the Temple and in the Towns. He was called to the work of his Father just like you and I are. You don't have to please people. Please your Lord Jesus, Love others like he did and if they don't love you back its not your issue. Its they're issue so, don't own it. Do not let someone Rob you of Love , Joy and Happiness.</span></p>

<p><span> </span><sup class="versenum" id="en-NIV-29393">1</sup><span> Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, </span><sup class="versenum" id="en-NIV-29394">2</sup><span> then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind. </span><sup class="versenum" id="en-NIV-29395">3</sup><span> Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, </span><sup class="versenum" id="en-NIV-29396">4</sup><span>not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.</span></p>
<p> <sup class="versenum" id="en-NIV-29397">5</sup> In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:</p>
<p> <sup class="versenum" id="en-NIV-29398">6</sup> Who, being in very nature<sup class="footnote">[<a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Philippians+2&version=NIV#fen-NIV-29398a" title="See footnote a">a</a>]</sup> God, <br/> did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; <br/><sup class="versenum" id="en-NIV-29399">7</sup> rather, he made himself nothing <br/> by taking the very nature<sup class="footnote">[<a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Philippians+2&version=NIV#fen-NIV-29399b" title="See footnote b">b</a>]</sup> of a servant, <br/> being made in human likeness. <br/><sup class="versenum" id="en-NIV-29400">8</sup> And being found in appearance as a man, <br/> he humbled himself <br/> by becoming obedient to death— <br/> even death on a cross!</p>
<p>Easier said then done. It takes a willingness of complete surrender of one's life. I takes abandonment of ego, pride. It takes the willingness to follow God at every level in life. It takes the ability to abandoned your goals and dreams. The willingness to suffer one's feelings in order to be for our Faith even to the point of Death. Obedience for me has come at a cost , a price a surrender to Love, to put God, Others above everything else in Life. To serve the Lord with complete abandonment of my will. To be pruned to the point of bareness . With out health, with out money with out ego and pride. I thank you Jesus for all you have given me. It has cost me everything that stood in the way of seeing you be effective in me. I am blessed you have carried me through the times that I have needed you to help me see that all that matters is You.</p>Lovetag:iccanlink.ning.com,2012-02-08:6284697:BlogPost:958452012-02-08T05:49:36.000ZTom Boylehttps://iccanlink.ning.com/profile/TomBoyle

<p>What if in this world with everyone,</p>
<p>A divine appointment they we treat.</p>
<p>To see them as his masterpiece</p>
<p>I all the folks we greet</p>
<p>To let them know we are glad they’re here</p>
<p>You have been waiting for all your life.</p>
<p>For being a world changer</p>
<p>Is to let Christ in you shine.</p>
<p>Its starts with just an understanding</p>
<p>The deepness of God’s love.</p>
<p>That his ever ending passion</p>
<p>Accepting it can be tuff.</p>
<p>To see each man we meet</p>
<p>With a depth of Joy divine,</p>
<p>To view all as a brother</p>
<p>To have a transformed mind.</p>
<p>To realize where all broken</p>
<p>Remember our burdens freed</p>
<p>By the love and call of the Savior</p>
<p>For the new life we now lead.</p>
<p>And this grace that was extended,</p>
<p>We should extend to all.</p>
<p>Being careful not to hurt others,</p>
<p>Next time it’s me that may fall.</p>
<p>Looking at each one as a model</p>
<p>Of the Masters, work of art.</p>
<p>Respecting and understanding</p>
<p>It’s God’s job to change a heart,</p>
<p>But to love he has commanded.</p>
<p>And I must to be his true.</p>
<p>For If I show the Love of Jesus,</p>
<p>Threw me there is nothing ….. he can’t do.</p>
