cancer & chemo
warning! this piece is for christians
it contains material that is sensitive to itchy ears
to ease your fears
representation of any form is not coincidental
as it is based on real people and events

come, let us make god in our own image
in our own image to avoid carnage like the days of old
this time not with earrings and jewelries of silver or gold
but with our hearts cold and in one fold
we can boldly use god to our advantage

just brand it and sprinkle some words of affirmations
praise the lord, hallеluyah… speak some tongues
our еnemies can die by fire as far as we go higher
so, don’t mention!

after all, the average person replies “na god o”
when asked how they made it

so we make it:
about the good we can get from a loving father
whose face we haven’t beheld
whose words we rehe-rs- but haven’t heard
a gracious shepherd who counts us as the one in his herd of a hundred
but in all these, he asks do you really love me
or are you after your daily bread?
if you are my sheep, are you by me, daily bred?
is my word daily read?
my sheep hear my voice, i know them and they follow me
do you follow me?
loveth me not more than these?
if your earthly father won’t give you snakes when you ask for fish…
so you see it is not about food, and raiment
and career and all the b-mscs and phds

these same things to which we have built idols in our hearts
and wonder why the spirit can’t find expression
are the same things the gentiles and pagans glory in
and find compensation

for this kingdom doesn’t comprise in the things a man has
but in righteousness, peace and joy in the holyghost

are you still a believer or are you unknowingly serving an idol?
idolatry is not only when you bow to statues or graven images, but also when you exalt anything in your heart
above the status (statues) of god

you know one thing i’ve realised:
you can’t love without being bound
for god is love and he said:
“if you love me you will keep my commands”
it couldn’t be more simple and profound
it cuts right to the heart of the matter
hits the nail on the head
and turns every interesting excuse upside down
we don’t prove our love through obedience
obedience is proof of our love…

obedience is not optional
it is not something denominational
the call to follow christ is simply doctrinal
not up for selection like:
i would choose ‘that obedience’ over ‘this obedience’
disobedience is sin!
and we worked in it long enough to get paid;
for the wages of sin is death

so we thank god for his free gift of eternal life
which we found in obedience
you don’t prove your love through obedience
obedience is proof of your love for god
