PRAYER: Lord, Fashion Me A New Heart

Father,
I Come Before You As A Child
Seeking Understanding
For I Think It Strange
That We Bow Our Heads
And Bend Our Knees
To Worship The God Holy
When Our Hearts Are Inclined 
To The Evil One Continually!
But, Then Again,  Father
I Know It Should Not Be That Strange
For Your Holy Word Says
That Our Hearts Operate Deceitfully
And Are Above All Knowing!

Father, Pity Me!
Make Me Anew!
Refashion Me A Heart
That Like My Head And Knee 
Will Bow 
In Worshipful Supplication Before You!

Help Me, Father
That  My Form Of Worship
Does Not Become Mere Fashion
Trendy
Useful Only To Give Relationships Traction!

Father, I Desire To Know You More!
Please Help Me So That My Bible-reading
And
My Study Of You
Do Not To Become A Chore!

I Pray That Your Word To Me
Become As Familiar As My Own Face
So That In My Life's Battles
My Faith Will Not Be Displaced!

Bless Me With Wisdom's Insight 
And Beautiful Understanding
Truth For The Day
And Peace
Beyond Surpassing!

Let My Song Be Praise
And 
Mercy And Grace My Companions!
Let Joy Be My Juice
And
Love Be The Bread That I Share!

Jesus Christ Is My Lord, Father
So Help Me To Be Of Him A Faithful Witness
And 
When My Journey Is At Its End
Let Me Enter Into Rest
Knowing That At The Awakening
I Shall Meet My Jesus In His Peace!
Oh, Let My New Heart Ever Sing Of Him
Who Paid My Price
To Relieve Death Of Its Awful Sting!

Father, I Have In You The Blessed Hope! 
Bless Me, In Jesus' Name
To Stand Firm To The End
To Claim My New Name, My Stars And My Crown
From The Glorious King, Conquering
Mighty And Strong!
AMEN.

HAPPY SABBATH + The Collision: When Lies Met Truth! + PRAYER: I'm Still True To Holy You!

River Tom
Said To Miss Kitty True:

"Come Into My Den!
Let Me Play A Little Game With You!
I Am Bold!
I Am Virile!
I've Killed A Dead Mouse Or Two
And I Want To Make
Sweet Music 
Sweeeet Music With You!"

"See Yonder Massive Spider
In That Small Shining Web
I Cuffed Him
And I Fluffed Him
And Now He IS Quite Dead
For
I Made Him An Example
Of My Prowess 
To Show You
That I Love You!
I Love You!
I Love You!
I Doooo!"

"As For That Listless Boa Constrictor
That's Been Aggressively Killing The Old Crone's Dead Cows
I Constricted His Constructor
And Now He IS Pulling My Plow!
I Did All That To Show You
That Though That Creator Maybe Had Been Bold
I, Yes, I
Devilish Darling That I AM
I Create The Music 
That I Use To Move 
Your Poor, Poor, Poor, Soul!

"Come Into My Parlor!
I Have Your Dinner All Prepared!
We Shall Share One Spoon
For I Made A Biting Consommé!
You Won't Need No Long Spoon
For
Our Dining, Darling, Issssss Intimate!
Leave A Message For Your Father!
Tell Him You Will Be Out Late! 
Verrrryy Late!"

"River Tom!
You Old Pole Cat!
From Me Get Away!
You're A Liar - The Very Devil!
You Should Say A Repentance Prayer!

"I Am Not One Gullible!
I Can See Right Through You!
You're Nothing But That Wicked Old Demon
Looking For Someone On Whom You Can Easily Chew!"

"Unlike You, I Trust My Father!
I Stand On His Every Word!
I Walk As One Humble
AND
I'm Not Joining Your Herd
Of To Truth Misfits and 
Rejecters Of The Living Word
Who've Swallowed 
Your Wholesale Mixed-Nut Pack Of Lies
And Who Walk About Pointing 
Saying:
'There Be Grey Aliens In Them Skies!'"

"Go Take Off Your Ever-changing Costume -
You Stopped Me Last Week
AND
I'm Telling You Now 
As I Did Tell You Back Then:
Get Thee Behind Me!
Once-For-All Formerly-Dead Jesus 
Is Alive!
He's My God
AND
He Ain't Dead!"

"Was-Dead Jesus Is Walking!
He's Walking On Full-Bodied Living Feet
AND
He IS My Lover
AND
He IS Gentle,  Kind,  Sweet
AND
I've Given Him My Burdens
AND
Bless Him!
I No Longer Walk With Hobbled Feet!

"With Regard To Your Dinner
You Can Forget About Me!
Your Goat Parts Are Fair Showing
AND
You Are Starting To Bleat!"

"Your Lies Don't Amuse Me
For
They Are Really Quite Sad!
You Left All God's Glory
To Become Fashionably Evil and
Noticeably Bad!"

"You Can't Go Back Home
AND
I'm Not Staying With You Here!
Enjoy Your Sorry Dinner
AND
Your To-Die-For 
Decadent Chocolate Eclairs!"

"Covering Up In That Light Gown
Doesn't Change Out Who You Are!
Admit It!
You Are Satan!
AND 
My Father IS Going To Forever Cut The Power 
In Your Lying-Light Bar!"

"Hear Me Once And For All Times:
Your Time Left Is Really Quite Short!
You May Now Do Your Damnedest
BUT
Your Genie-Bottle Will Soon Have 
1,000-Year Cement In The Cork!"

"I Know You Will Appear Again
After All Of Your Failures Have Had Sweet Rest
AND
You'll Come Up Against The Saints In Grand Zion
BUT
Hallelujah!
Your Going For Broke
Is Just Going To Get You 
By My God
Eternally Smoked!"

Father, I Am On My Way Home!

I Just Met The Head Of The Goat-Herd!

I Denied Him A Victory

By

Standing Firm On Your Word!

Oh, Father!

My Father!

I Love 

and 

Trust You!

Thank You For The Many Blessings!

I'm Coming Home 

Still True 

To

Only Holy You!

AMEN.
