My own, personal Margaritaville-
(Please forgive my defacing of Mr. Buffet's most beautiful work about the path of self reallization. I tried to do it some justice.)
Nibblin' on my fate
Watchin' what God spate
All us weary travelers covered in toil
Ignorin' my Spirit sense
Sittin' on a fear fence
Smell all the world's troubles, it's beginning to boil
Chasin' my tail
In the belly of the whale again
Searching for my lost light and lost salt
The Bible claims that there's thoughts
not captive in my brain
But I feel
it's nobody's fault
Don't know the reason
My flesh commits treason
Nothin' to show but some goofy haikus
But they're clever beauties
Some poetic cuties
What they might effect, well I haven't a clue
Chasin' my tail
in the belly of the whale again
Searchin' for my lost mission from God
The Bible claims that there's thoughts
not captive in my brain
Now I think
Hell, it could be my fault
My emotions do flip flop...
From valley to hilltop
But what I might feel can't lead me back home
But if I surrender
To HIS Blood I tender
That faith filled decision that helps me hang on
Chasin' my tail
in the belly of the whale again
Searching for my lost salt and lost light
The Bible claims that there's
renewal for my brain
Now I know
I am the salt and the light
Yes and the Bible claims that there's a woman to blame
And I know
Jesus covers my own damned faults
We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. And we will be ready to punish every act of disobedience, once your obedience is complete.
2 Corinthians 10:5-6 NIV
https://bible.com/bible/111/2co.10.5-6.NIV
Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
Romans 12:1-2 NIV
