Little Random

In this moment there is music
In my soul there is dancing
The confusion is gone
Replaced by the clarity of what is
The haze drifts away
I am what I am
And that is all I need to be.

Therefore,
Schmitty

Personal Psalm #3: Abba, fix.

My heart sickens within me.
You have afflicted me
With love for my enemies.
Deliver me from these binds!
Grant me my apathy!
Leave them to their perdition
To their paths of self-destruction.
May their actions
Be Your judgment upon them.
For "revenge is mine," saith the Lord.

And yet I ask You for freedom
I ask You to fix my heart.
I ask for a broken and contrite spirit
Should that breaking be painless?
Should freedom come
Outside of forgiveness?

And should I consider myself
Better in any way?
Am I not on the same path?
Would that I had humility
To awake from myself
At the sight of their doom
That the doom of my enemies
Would warn me.
Fashion my spirit in fear
And rescue me from their fate.
Moreover, their fate is not certain
They are Yours
Save Your own.

Direct me, then.
I can do nothing.
Surely I am worthless to them.
But fashion me after Your will.
May I learn from them
May they be saved
And so save us all.

Abba, fix.

Therefore,
Schmitty

for yer love be moar delitefool den cheezbugers. Srsly."


Srsly awsum.

Schmitty Psalm #2

I cry out to You, my Savior, my Refuge.
My enemies encircle me with false embraces,
With lying lips they praise me.
Remove them from my presence
Deliver me from their midst,
Surround me with those who love You;
Those who serve the Lord, the true God.
Religion does not satisfy my thirst for You,
But godly living draws me near to Your heart.
My enemies bind me with cords of tradition:
Woven with good intentions,
But decayed by legality and hypocrisy.
Give me a heart like Yours,
Renew my desire for Your ways
And direct my paths for Your pleasure
Then I will honor You, in freedom and joy.
Those who oppose me would tie me down
But they will see my joy and Your favor,
And envy me.
Make Your servant an example of Your goodness
And put my enemies to shame.

Therefore,
Schmitty
