Sunday Sermon by richard lynn livesay

Discernment is a peppermint candy cane left out in the rain

Who’s to blame if you inspect your poles, north to south?

The linear parallels create movement between positive and negative

Giving us choices; even not to choose is a choice, mostly a mental decision

But there is another way of choosing and that is with the feelings of the heart

There is a wishbone in my eye and I must first get it out

Give thanks, break bread and know all will be well done

As turkeys on the table are just symbols, crashing from the past

But the communion of sweet tater pie and conversational friends

May be a blend to cherish and remember ‘til next November

There is another colloidal experiment and that is surreal writing

This world programs us to use our brains according to educated rational

We are fed theories and told to believe them but words are only symbols

And can be manipulated and slanted to influence various agendas

So we end up with broken trust receptors and questioning or doubting everything

The image of the Creator is spirit and science is finally seeing this in Quantum physics

Everything is made from these sub particles or life energy which we call mass

Even a rock, the soil, the beach is teeming with these tiny building blocks

We are all part of the whole universal life pattern and we are given choice

Some ties that bind must be unbound as thoughts can manifest prisons

Water will remember, mist, rain, rivers and oceans receive our thoughts

We are like raindrops, flowing in the river of life, here for a short time

Then evaporate into misty spirit, cleansed, then picked up by the eternal wind

To return as rain or to meld with the source, always the freedom of choice

For now we see through a glass darkly but the rain of our tears shall clear forever
