Performed March 18, 2016 | Denver, CO
I relish in the presence of a coherent ever loving, irresistible, incomprehensible lover
Who like no other has captured my heart arrested my affections
Divested my reason
Ignited my passion
Removed the cold indifference of stale judgments of myself
Condemning unrelenting harshness that has paralyzed my life
Boring my day
Snoring while walking
Saying words not really talking
Just mumbling, grumbling desperate to make sense of something… I call life
I’m lulled in dull colors
In a cubicle
Looking a pictures of where I really want to be
On mountain top
Riding waves
Living extravagantly with passion
Being raptured each moment with wild abandonment in pursuit
of the one who pursues me to no end
Till I am filled to the brim with amazement bursting out of me
Experiencing passion extravagantly
Don’t need imitations offered by religion
Rules that stagnate the impulsiveness of vision
Stimulants to numb the pain
With a false high from grass, food, sex and even that cain
I’m living spontaneity of purpose fueled with passionate waves of
Wreck less love that brake the chains that bound me down beneath the ground
of superficiality
Robbing me of my authenticity
Get off me!
I can frolic
Fall to the ground
Laugh out loud
Grab hold and swing like a little child – on my Heavenly Fathers neck
Looking into His eyes ignited with extravagant passion
Because – He’s so proud of who he’s created me to be – a reflection – of Himself in me –
I’m made in His image – you see
No need to fret
Live in regret
Be the pet of demons that attack – with darts that are fiery stings of condemnation
Seeking to hold me to this plantation of existing not living
Apologizing not aggrandizing on what God knows of me
His love so tenderly embracing the spirit of who I really am
Not because of performances I perform to conform to a sense of duty
A guilt driven
Pride ridden
Delusional imagery – of a God whose always angry
Waiting for me to tip Him a tithe
To go to church and perch
Saying prayers with rhetorical words – others give me
Laced with learned fear imparted by tradition – that imprisons
Always working to meet the conditions – that others have taught
I’m withering inside this legalistic, man made draught
Such are enemies of the liberty
That’s mine by faith alone – in the work that He – Jesus – has done
With aggression of indignation I cast off this disruption of the expression of extravagant passion that is mine to have, to hold to posses inside my soul.
I no longer subscribe to the well scripted lie
That to live is to exist – amongst souls not made alive.
To be decent, respectful for disgraceful agendas that placate my face
To never agitate the order of things
To uproot poisonist origins – that spray me with an identity defined by a twisted society
A culture that continues to rediscover the same same, never becoming sane
Wanting to even change the nature of things
Birds can’t swim and monkeys still swings on trees that will never hug me – back
To subjugate my originality
To never embrace living passionately
Dreaming wildly
Through fierce faith in God HIMSELF – not an idol of my lust dipped in melted fear sprinkled with frigid, rigid rituals that can never clear – my conscience of guilt shame and disgust
I’m exhausted and tired of this selfish ride of pride
The God Who never will leave or depart from my side
He’s inviting you
compelling you
daring you to walk in new realms way above the sky,
Bursting past the plateau of growth deterred by others who don’t know
Who
You
Really
Are.
Open your eyes and see the lie!
Extravagant passion is right before you
It awaits your grasp
Not with mind of reason or committing treason to a religious expression that is fake, cold and dead
Abstracting your heart from connecting with God
Who is pursuing you with a passion that started it all.
It’s time for you in child like faith – to simply respond.
Just believe
Lift up your hands
Take hold of His
By faith your journey begins
Through living, soaring and loving
In worship and in praise
You will discover who you where born to be
As you purpose to live each day with the passion He gives you.
Extravagantly!
