My Breath

"Lowborn men are but a breath, the highborn are but a lie; if weighed on a balance,
they are nothing; together they are only a breath." Psalms 62:9

I feel a pull on me, like gravity, 'tis ecstasy
As His love beckons me to reckon with eternity
I close my eyes, realize, I don't need them anymore
For I am tuned! I'm not marooned, to pure life in the sky

All through His skies, God's Creation is one tight connection
Glued by pulling energy in balance with correction
And when a mass is pulled away, dark night replaces day
Live spirits get their power from God; it is the only way.

All souls on earth are struggling with the interfering night
A strong force tempts our spirits, pulls away to hide the light
Deceiving souls, creating pain, with sickness, sadness, death
Distracting through flesh senses, substituting poison breath.

But God is calling, "stay with me, breathe my eternal breath.
I give you Love, My binding glue to save your soul from death
Let me pull on thee, like gravity, you'll find ecstasy
My Love beckons thee, come reckon now with eternity.

And live eternally when you are connected through Love."

In My Breath.

Silver Streak - We should be thankful everyday for the love of our Lord. Your words are wonderous. Chris

Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away.

Thank you for your kind thoughts, Madame Chipmunk.

For the record, I don't practice any religion, I believe in going directly to God,who is Spirit. I believe that Religion and dogma are created by man, although I do not dispute with any. I believe that Christ is God's (The Creator's) Spirit of Love. And Love is necessary to connect all living spirits with God. I believe that all matter is but Spirit residue, created by spirit play, and inspiration in Holy Scriptures is given to man to help understand God's Word. But true and complete understanding of God's Word is only given through interpretation of the Holy Scriptures by a Holy Spirit from God.
