Free Yourself!

Post by Gman »

Want to do something that will free yourself? Get rid of the clutter in your life. I just spent a few weekends of dumping stuff I didn't use anymore out of my house. It basically amounted to three car loads of junk. Of course my junk was good junk, but nonetheless it feels good to get rid of it. Now I don't have much in my house, but I feel GREAT!!! I just have a few things that I need and they are clean!!

Don't hoard, throw that crap out of your life...
The heart cannot rejoice in what the mind rejects as false - Galileo

We learn from history that we do not learn from history - Georg Friedrich Wilhelm Hegel

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable, if anything is excellent or praiseworthy, think about such things. -Philippians 4:8

Is it already spring cleaning time at your place?

If they had a social gospel in the days of the prodigal son, somebody would have given him a bed and a sandwich and he never would have gone home.

And Jesus does this to our souls, when He removes the clutter and stains of sin. Pretty cool.

We can make believe
We're happy and free
It's automatic when
The money is in our hands
People always try
To look beyond their own lives
But, I know that It wont last
Pride comes before our fellow man

Oh-oh, Oh-oh, Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh, Oh-oh, Oh-oh-oh-oh

It's a perfect day
For us to make a change
Forget about the watered down
Mistakes that we have made
And there's a way
To clear our tainted names
Just look ahead and don't be scared
We've got so many choices to make

Take a look around (Just look around)
Where is your hope found (Where is it found)
Is it the ones you love
Or just your bank account?
(We all want to be
The people we should never be
We're trying things we just don't need

It's a perfect day
For us to make a change
Forget about the watered down
Mistakes that we have made
And there's a way
To clear our tainted names
Just look ahead and don't be scared
We got so many choices to make

Paint the things we don't need
To impress those we don't know
Indebted to our own accessories
We hide behind our own lies
But the fake dreams, it can't be
The only thing we have worth living for

It's a perfect day
For us to make a change
Forget about the watered down
Mistakes that we have made
Morning breaks
into a brand new day
So look ahead and don't be scared
We've got so many choices to make
The Lyrics to the song by Emery called Closed Eyes, Open Hands.
I will trust the ones I love and not my meaningless positions.
Once I was trapped in a perpetual night, without even a star to light the sky. Now I stand in the glory of the Son, and not even a faint shadow of darkness remains.
