126:5.9 As he grew up to manhood, he passed through all those conflicts and confusions which the average young persons of previous and subsequent ages have undergone. And the rigorous experience of supporting his family was a sure safeguard against his having overmuch time for idle meditation or the indulgence of mystic tendencies.

Young and Dumb?
Spring continues—gathers strength.
Beauty sings, and warmth it brings.
As day begins, the birds are busy.
Some sing songs that make you misty.

Songs can trigger memories.
There’s magic in those hideaways.
The memory of being young
Is your defense of being so dumb?

Wisdom’s gained by life experience.
It changes how you gain convenience.
Take control of your direction.
Make a change in your reactions

Ride the crest of Spirit waves.
Do the right thing every day.
Do it better as you live.
Practice is a way to give.

Look to see where you are going.
In general, we all are growing.
Some are only growing old
While others grow a story told.

Grow your story in a way
That shows you better ways to play.
Growing up in what we do
Leads us all to what is true.

Thank You, Father, You have reached
A part of me that yearns to preach
The “Good News” You’re there everyday.
Within us all, You mold our clay.

Lighten Your Burdens
"Lighten your burdens of soul by speedily acquiring a long-distance view of your destiny, a universe expansion of your career." Jesus,156:5.8

5:2.5.2 As the soul of joint mind and Adjuster creation becomes increasingly existent, there also evolves a new phase of soul consciousness which is capable of experiencing the presence, and of recognizing the spirit leadings and other supermaterial activities, of the Mystery Monitor

Greener Grass
The grass has turned another shade.
It’s greener now than yesterday.
It’s getting longer, growing fast.
Soon, it’s cutting will be our task

Why do we grow grass to cut?
Yards look the same, no weeds erupt.
Some flowers may grow at the edges.
A path may cut through border hedges.

In any case, our grass keeps growing.
It gets so long, we see it blowing.
If it’s not cut, it goes to seed.
And then new sowing does its deed.

Seeds, under right conditions
Sprout and grow, that is their mission.
In the past, we all were seeds.
Now we’re growing through some weeds.

What are the weeds that live among us?
TV shows that shift our compass?
Where we do intend to go
Truly matters in life’s show.

Listen to the Guy inside.
He’s with you when you do decide.
Standby what you think is right.
Be guided by what’s called insight.

Thank You, Father, for this path.
I like to watch the growing grass.
I love the Spring, and all it brings.
Today, in Choir, I’m going to sing.
