I personally believe that the most important part of a song is in the weight and depth of its lyrics. 

Nothing about a song gets to me more!

That's what I enjoy the most about singing. Sometimes in the place of fellowship(be it personal or corporate), there are many emotions going through my heart that I find music to be a great channel of expressing... through not just the melody but more importantly through great lyrics, that carry realities of faith, blended in the synchrony and harmony of melodies...

It's just beautiful 😍

And I'm glad I finally have a place to share or breathe out the motions of my heart in song lyrics 😌

It seemed okay the day before 

It looked like all was becoming well

Like the mind at last found peace 

Like the heart at last settled in 

Like the thoughts at last are now pure 

But today bears different tidings

Not as though all is no longer well

Or as though chaos is everywhere 

But as of a shift in tide 

A wavering in course

From the peace of yesterday 

To a manner of unrest of today 

From the hearts settlement of before

To a barrage of questions and concerns

Questions that bring with it impurities 

Impurities that when exposed 

Make a man feel he was never pure
 
Like yesterday's joy was nothing but an abstract 

Like the peace was never real...

Like he had been tricked into believing 

He was whole

Or was he not?

It is but a question of time

A question of completing 

A question of finishing 

A question of becoming 

For when a man continues 

Journeying on with faith 

His wholeness will be complete 

And the cycle of yesterdays and todays 

Will be finished.

Because then, the new man will appear 

And the real man who is the same 

Yesterday, Today, and forever 

Will be fully seen.

Timidity is not humility 
 Inability to confidently roar by the spirit 
 Is not a meekness of the spirit
 Mediocrity that stems from laxity 
 Is not the mark of poverty in the spirit. 
 And to be barren of the understanding of my world
 Is not a show of spiritual maturity.

I am not more humble when I refuse responsibility 
 I do not become more like Jesus 
 When I refuse His apprehension 
 It is laziness to wish it is not I who will do it 
 To desire to be freed of my labor
 Is to seek a freedom unto captivity
 My ability to hide in the face of duty that shows my brightness 
 Is not the mark of lowliness
 It is only an indication 
 Of my lack of faith in the Spirit of holiness 
Who is able to keep me meek and lowly 
 Even in the face of brightness and seeming glory
... 

Living on earth; a constant warfare...

Swords...
A dagger cutting deep but precisely,
Shards of glass wedged between delicate flesh 
Fiery darts with their many sharp and pointed edges pinching painfully at the heart 
A thick cloud of gloom covering the mind fueled by the pain in  the heart...

It's a constant warfare of thoughts with the pain felt in the heart...
Just when you think... "It's a great day... I finally have some respite" then voila!... There comes another one, exploring a new piece of flesh that has not been touched before...

Of a truth, there's no place of rest upon the Earth for a sojourner 
I must connect to a higher economy to find rest...
A warfare constantly to keep my heart 
To really keep the love of God burning in it 🔥

Suffer it to be so I must cos you say your grace is sufficient for me...

So I cling to every word you say
Every word you speak 
Every breath from your lips 
Every saying
Every commandment 
Every instruction
Every wise counsel 

I take up the shield of Faith 🛡️ and I guard my heart diligently and jealously ⚔️

So help me God 🥹🙏

 If your software crashes, you blame the logic, not the air it runs on. Why do we do the opposite with existence?
Body: We love to celebrate human brilliance in the marketplace. We praise the data architect who visualizes complex patterns, or the engineer who optimizes a failing pipeline. We call them "brilliant."
But there’s a massive philosophical bluff happening in modern intellect. We use the very tools given to us logic, consciousness, mathematical consistency to argue against the One who established the parameters for those tools to exist.
Philosopher Alvin Plantinga argued this brilliantly through Evolutionary Argument Against Naturalism (EAAN): If our minds are merely the product of random, unguided evolutionary survival, we have zero logical reason to trust our cognitive faculties to deliver objective truth. We’d only trust them to get us food and keep us alive.
Yet, we trust our minds to map the cosmos and build global tech stacks.
To say God doesn’t exist while boasting about human intellect is like a software program claiming it wrote the hardware it runs on. You didn't invent your consciousness; you inherited it. You didn’t create the laws of physics that make your computing possible; you discovered them.
Before we boast about what our hands built today, let’s look at the raw material. The marketplace is a subset of a much larger System. It doesn't make sense to kick the Root Developer out of the workspace. systemorecosystem.com
