With a billion views Corporate finds the news. In words of simplicity, There's no room for complexity.
Some might find this a pity, But it's another night in New York City. The paparazzi flashes light While all the glitz blasts the night.
Heroes and villains sing the song. Every moment blogged takes too long. Clawing back shredded credibility Takes more than PR's glossed over ability.
The truth isn't relevant If it's not dressed in elegant. It may not be very nice, But everything has its price.
Manhattan has its madness. Every jump in Uptown has its sadness. They say they're out for credibility While they smile away their integrity.
Heroes and villains sing the song. Every moment blogged takes too long. Clawing back shredded credibility Takes more than PR's glossed over ability
This is the modern world as it chokes, Smiles the circus monkey at its own joke. For those about to swallow and die, They cover it up with another glossy lie.
Silence is found in its infinite wisdom, Standing by in the globalist kingdom. The corporate junkie gives his card with a tease, Knowing full well the emperor has all the keys.

“I always considered an idle Life, as a real evil, but, a life of such hurry, such constant hurry, leaves us scarcely a moment for reflection or for the discharge of any other then the most immediate and pressing concerns.” – Edward Rutledge
The scars of mistakes made Are deep enough not to fade. As our eyes search for our guiding stars, Sometimes we are embraced by our scars.
The flames of burning hate Distract from our latest grief. The teeth of fire flicker as it grows late, While their ashes speak of belief.
Living water may wash away all sin, But still a mother sings her song of mourning. Some wish for a second chance again, But these dreams fade with each morning.
In the village, life continues As if war has never blown by. Beneath the skin, the pain continues. Still, its easier to laugh than to cry.
The weapons of war poison the heart. It doesn't make for peaceful ways. It is such things from the start That brings the end of all days.
Living water may wash away all sin, But still a mother sings her song of mourning. Some wish for a second chance again, But these dreams fade with each morning.
For some it's a choice of love. Others still will stand and fight. Both follow the traditions of above. Honestly, neither is fully right.
Those who live with intention to kill Follow Satan's not God's will. Those thirsting for blood's awful taste Are mainly known for living their waste.
Living water may wash away all sin, But still a mother sings her song of mourning. Some wish for a second chance again, But these dreams fade with each morning.

These things we need: worship, love and generosity; And in this relationship we live our spirituality. We spend ourselves as God's good and holy family, And in this, we center and find our community.
Daniel has a lot to unpack in his story, All of which exemplifies God's due glory. Brought to learn Babylonian traditions and ways, Daniel remained faithful to godly ways
Humanity itself was the only truth seen as highest. God was banished from the square and Babylonian youth. The flourishing of humanity was seen as the highest goal, But there was no care given to the fragile human soul.
The Tower of Babylon arrogantly focused on humanity. It was a celebration of man's favor in an overt act of vanity. In essence, it was an open rejection of godly ways, Until God signaled the triumph of His theology.
The wisdom of man is sheer foolishness in God's eyes. It is similar to today and easy enough to recognize. The genius of God is easily seen in all of creation. This then should be the basis of every reasonable nation.
We, as humanity, are best in accepting our simplicity At least so much as we see the light of God's complexity. Breathing in just to live enough to breathe out. For the best of us, our trust in God removes our doubt.
We believers walk confidently in God's good protection With sufficient reasons for this in our ready detection. The Designer has set our wants and needs in their place, And all we have to do is to accept the goodness of His grace.
His Word reveals to us the extent of His good glory. It is set forth as the message of His holy story. Whatever name the world exchanges for our identity, God is the final judge that forms our sanctity.
The exclusion of God brings us to a ruinous culture. It takes from us the good things that we must nurture. As believers in God, we must do life in His holy way. It is in this faith that we build our better days.
Finding mercy and peace in our souls Comes down to God, who is wholly in control. Knowing the sovereignty of God in which we trust. We do this in habit, as believers, because we must.
Great is the faith that knows that God provides. In God's love, our truth will always abide. God provides all that we ever truly need. In knowing and living this, we are freed.
This is our best and only real test, Our believing that God's commandments are for the best. However much the world tempts us into the lion's den, We are best kept to faith, never surrendering to sin.
This is our one path, and it is our salvation, Not only ours but for the sanctity of every nation. Acceptance of God's truth in every way, Our repentance is found in the words that we pray.

“Although the sovereignty of God is universal and absolute, it is not the sovereignty of blind power. It is coupled with infinite wisdom, holiness and love. And this doctrine, when properly understood, is a most comforting and reassuring one. Who would not prefer to have his affairs in the hands of a God of infinite power, wisdom, holiness and love, rather than to have them left to fate, or chance, or irrevocable natural law, or to short-sighted and perverted self? Those who reject God’s sovereignty should consider what alternatives they have left.” – Loraine Boettner
“Blessed be the name of God forever and ever, to whom belong wisdom and might. He changes times and seasons; he removes kings and sets up kings; he gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding.” – Daniel 2:20-21
“So live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about their religion; respect others in their view, and demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life, beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long and its purpose in the service of your people. Prepare a noble death song for the day when you go over the great divide.” – Tecumseh
Heading out of Australia to escape this Aussie winter. First stop Japan, then UK/Ireland and if work doesn't call me back, onto Chicago. I will make it up as I go along
