"Our Clique"

[1] Look, man It's hard to break us up./
We've been a crew so long & we like being stuck./ [2] This club is exclusive; we mainly keep the door shut./ The only way you getting in is if you act like us./ [3] We're very selective, but you may make the cut./ If you're accepted you're not to interact with anyone. [4] If someone tries to engage you, ignore them to shut them up./ If that doesn't work keep smiling & nodding until they're done./ [5]You are to only chill with us. We're you're only family./ Keep in mind that we found you when you had nobody./ [6] Outspoken? Nah, we tolerated your existence & let you speak./ Converted you to our culture so now you better rep we./ [7] I don't want to hear about how you're here to know peeps./ You are to follow us & sleep when we say sleep, ya sheep./

[8] Could this be jealousy or explaining how we thirst when we're lonely./ We as the Church of Christ shouldn't choose who we love unconditionally./ [9] Jesus may had 12 disciples, and out of three he held closely./ Yet when it was time for Him to love all, He did it openly & equally./

My brothers, show no partiality as you hold the faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory.

James 2:1 [ESV]

God's Love & God's Faith -inspired by Psalm 36-

God's Love & God's Faith
February 14, 2014 1:36am

[1] Giving honor to my God whose love remains steadfast./ My LORD has that enduring love that makes hearts glad./

[2] His love is a reason why I responded to the number He called me at./ That's time and a place even if I don't remember those facts./.

[3] He's my heavenly Father and I wouldn't want to change that./ Adopted me so now I have the actual rights to say dad./

[4] Faithfulness to clouds? Who without God is touchin' that?/  Even with God your faith compared to His is kind of sad./

[5] So even when we slip in slime, He still has open arms... ain't that rad?/ He ain't leavin', Praise be to Jesus by sending us someone to help us be on track./

[6] Back to how His love goes past the blue sky to gold pads./ This same love that'll have you full of faith in fire like Shadrach./

[7] This ain't that same love that is obsessed with intolerance./ All I know is this love covers me even when worst happens./

[8] I praise a God, The God who loves, and that live is action./ Could He could of still loved us even if the Gospel never happened?

Cold Walks, Sweet Talks

Cold Walks, Sweet Talks
December 28th, 2013 11:46pm

(1) As we gather under the banter of those who declare the master. / My aim is to not pander, but keep us as rappers who chatter. /

(2) When we start to worship we dancers rejoicing of blood spatter./ This time together really matters it adds to our illustrious chapters. /

(3) Many times our confession is like a crapper who's a smelly panther. / Doing silly panda dances while we wait for sky crack or the rapture. /

(4) I'm serving up these love cakes with more agape to lather./ Let us act like his infants even if we need change of pampers. /

(5) Come on bride, together we supposed to shine like lanterns- / Minus the plural, it's about Jesus yo so let our heart burn. /

(6) Together, oh forever let us together do that amazing work./Walk by faith, our hands holding hands with father. /

(7) Yeah, so let us really live this life even if it's the death of us. /Yet as His Bride, His Ride or Die we simply won't die bruh. /

(8) We need to be one, not just in building or association. / Organized or not we are called to walk & talk by Adoption & Regeneration ./

[1] Here is my two cents in all of this./ My hope is not to offend any with this perspective./ [2] Majority will most certainly have the opposite./ Maybe it would be different if I lived in Florida and not Salinas./

[3] So this Treyvon Martin case that just finished up./ A lot of those in my color box think this verdict being non guilty was messed up./ [4] The act of killing someone is indeed wrong, it so sucks./ I'm not trying to say that Zimmerman was in the right or Treyvon was not inno-sant./ [5] I'm saying is that I'm sick of people making it into race which is screwed up./ If we really slow it down and realize that this happens everyday in 'Merica./ [6] So it's like every single black innocent kid should be brought up./ Instead of saying that the justice is in the wrong because of his skin. Bruh -/ [7] you should just pray that God covers us all because we all guilty without Jesus./ Maybe I'm a little less compassionate about black folks dying since I live in Salinas./

[8] Whatever the case is, I must pray for the nation./ I'm not picking a side or condoning killing or people being racist./ [9] Only God knows the deceitful hearts of us men./ So because of What God did on that cross, we should love.. not judge them./

[10] I know that this could still be me as I walk home every early morn from work./ So people would be sad, but would it matter if the case goes to the Supreme Court?/

[11] Everyone deserves hell, even if they they die in a different way./ What we should long for is heaven & for Christ to be leader of our days./ [12] In these times I have to have Biblical faith and not black faith./ Doing this takes courage. Doing this very well may get you some hate./ [13] So before you get all pissed and want to make this about race./ Calm down. The courts verdict ain't the end.. For victims & hearts that are wicked. Just pray./

[1] I first want to apologize as I felt as though I should have already written this./ My thoughts which held me back was "Would this be enough encouragement?"/ [2] I could I chant and cheer on everyone to run to Jesus,/ Without coming off like I'm rebuking them./ [3] I guess I felt like I had to undergo many qualifications./ Then I realized that it don't take much to bless them./

[4] So hello to the Elders who are the head leadership after Christ./ I pray that God by his word and prayer give all of you wisdom and insight./ [5] Continue to be pillars who are only pillars because you follow and look to The Light./ I know things are tougher than I think, but you guys have my support to lead with Biblical love and minds./ [6] I pray that the enemy doesn't keep any of you in a bind./ I rebuke him. Recognize that he aims to destroy so a fragment of him shall not come by./

[7] To the Pastors, Jason, Cris, Joel, & Mike./ I pray that you all continue to preach Jesus Christ./ [8] Be encouraged and strengthen to know that by God yawl are touching many lives./ Many minds, Only God truly gets the glory even if people look at you men and idolize./ [9] You men are constant reminders to keep studying the word day & night./ To know that by Holy Spirit I can speak to any age group, since all can become new in Christ./

[10] To the worship team who I gladly feel apart of./ Every Sunday singing along to our Jesus./ [11] I encourage you brothers and sisters who are talented-/ To continue to keep running this race, and to flat out worship./ [12] I use to care so much about the kind of music./ That is until attending Hungry and eventually coming to the 10:45 worship service./

[13] I Just love my family who I so wish I knew more of./ So many people here that I wish I could hug./ [14] Just wishing I can have true fellowship with everyone./ Appreciate that I do with about a half of them on the second one-/ [15] The second service which together we shout to Jesus./ Get filled with His Love./

[16] Lord I pray that you bless the home that I attend./ Bless us to be a church of Biblical dedication./ [17] Somehow we will come up short like an abbreviation./ Yet we can still be that bride that is so loving./ [18] God bless the families here to be prominent in this body./ To be those who rise and fight in God's army./

[19] Lord Jesus, we need you to equip us more with Holy Spirit./ Have us to only speak the language of the world with the intention to get people to Jesus./ [20] I pray that you empower all the ministries to succeed in your mission./ Have us as a body to thirst, to hunger, and to cry out for Justice./ [21] To be a beacon of light that surrounds Salinas./ To be a salt mine that attracts those who need flavorin'

[22] Also I thank the staff who I know have a lot to accomplish./ I pray that by the strength of God you'll get through this and tasks finished./ [23] I also say thanks that for 7 months I have been cleaning./ This experience allows me to serve God in a different way all while being humble in the process./

[24] Lord I thank you for this home which at times I'm not sure if it is./ Please pray that I'll just continue to love FPC and to accept it./

Blind Battle [7/17/13]

[1] I tend to see a whole lot of arguments about the Bible./ "Careful not to say anything offensive bro"./ [2] I'm not trying to cause strife like the Titanic that couldn't float./ Yet trying to wonder why people either have anger or crude jokes./ [3] To them the God of the Bible is false and the book is man wrote./ They proclaim themselves against God or god in a castle guarded by a dangerous moat./ [4] Some of these who argue are really intelligent, intellectual specimen who seem to know./ If God doesn't exists then how come it's OK for them to be absolutely cutthroat./ [5] Calling those foolish who actually believe in a living hope./ It's irritating to know in their eyes Christians are impractical jokes./ [6] It all makes sense. It really does if you really know./ That before you accepted Christ, you were pushing everyone down the slope./

[7] To those who don't know Christ what I'm saying is foolish./ They may even have good sounding details and visually ok evidence./ [8] Also you can't forget that their faith is that of common since./ There attitudes is very powerful and their speech is like this./ [9] "If I can't see Jesus now or concrete in depth evidence then it does not exist./ I'm a defender of the wise so ofcourse I have to point out things that are stupid/ [10] Look at all these sheep. It's my job to tell of God and to say that I'm different./ The Bible is written by men. I make you folks cry. I might as well call this anti-evangelism."/ [11] While most have hearts that declare this very rebellious and angry message./ Only a few of them are actually ones who are loud, knowlegable and outspoken. [12] Making me feel like what's the point of declaring Jesus if I were to ever approach them./ Like they are so passionate about Jesus not being alive.. How can I actually convince them./

[13] Then I realize that it's not my job to convince, but to love them./ Not every will enter the kingdom of heaven, I gotta let that sink in./ [14] Instead of getting mad that they don't accept Jesus./ Again, my job is to love them since they are human./ [15] I don't know if that person who is the biggest atheist./ or someone who professes to be a new age buddhist./ [16] Is someone I'll see after old earth is gone with./ And I come to found out they ran after Jesus with such grace and passion./ [17] So I shall not lose heart even in those difficult moments./ Realize that just because they don't agree meaning I can't love them./

[18] Now instead of looking at them with the biggest hate and strife./ What I need to do is intercede with battle cries./ [19] It's a must that I keep them in my prayers even if they don't surrender to Christ./ What these prayers will do is help me to look at them with love in my eyes./ [20] So I rebuke the father of lies./ Who deceived, tricked, and played many generations into thinking God is a lie./ [21] Also thinking that he, the devil is not real and evil is Just of the mind./ Praying that reluctant people everywhere will humble themselves to Christ./ [22] I don't write this all snarky in the voice of a southern Baptist saying "You're Goin' To Hell tonight./ Instead I say that if the Bible is fake and God is a lie../ [23] Then what's the point in telling people everywhere that a certain group is wrong.. some are right./ I mean when you look back on it.. Why did you ever waste your energy or time.?/
