The mind of a sinful man is death, but a life yielded to the Spirit Romans 8:6 part seven
Life Through the Spirit continued
The mind of a sinful man is death, but a life yielded to the Spirit is life and
peace; the sinful mind is hostile to God. It does not submit to God's law,

Waiting, Yielded, and Still - Jeremiah 18: 1-10
The great old hymn of a past age
'have thine own way Lord' has said
surrendering to God's will in one's life
God's the potter, we're the clay to be as dead
In God's will seek God's approval
resign oneself for a mould and make
learn to be waiting on the Lord
in His time for it's for your sake
Lord please search

Snow Showers Earlier Today December 9th 2020 Yielded Negligible Accumulation
Snow showers earlier today December 9th, 2020 yielded negligible accumulation
Though anyone who saw
and/or watched local news would be more wise
the brief flurry of crystalline precipitation
came as a complete surprise,
cuz yours truly prefers
getting strangled courtesy neckties
versus being given spoiler alert
subsequently forced to give reciprocal highfives.
I generally skirt tracking the weather,
nevertheless the missus would pantomime,
née blurts out

Yielded
Enable me, Lord, to live for You
by the Holy Spirit’s power
since I know that I’m worthless
without Your grace and might…
Keep me abiding
truly joyous
in Your will
yielded*
still.
*Romans 6:13 …Yield yourselves unto God, … and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.

Labor Yielded Lustrous Lovely Lass
our second of two lasses conceived
sometimes within a blink
the exact moment auguring conception
difficult to identify or pinpoint
whence seminal liquid
ejaculated from a phallic chink
birth of second daughter thyself and spouse created
while immersed in the coital drink
generally occurred during
our naked lunch sans primal cop
yule la shun, via carousing with amorousness
when a

Yielded and Still
Yielded and Still [Prayer]
May I remain surrendered
Yielded and still
My heart aches for love
That seems not to be your will
For anything that will lead me
Away from your master plan
Means that I deny you
Refuse to take your hand.
I believe you have your reasons
For saying, “be yielded and still”
So I’m complying with your words
Even though it’s not my
