treasure lyrics!

hey... just thought you might need this...
© Rogueruse 2011 ASCAP

Verse one 
So I’m sitting in a pew, Is this all there is to do?
Once a week reach in my pocket, and give some cash to YOU.
They call it treasure, call it treasure. The world calls it treasure? Do YOU?Chorus
Everytime you get together, bring a word and shout it out, yeah
Everytime you get together, bring a song and sing it out, yeah
Everytime you get togeth
er, bring a psalm and let the words rhyme it out!

½ Chorus
Everytime you get together, bring a song and sing it out, yeah
Everytime you get together, bring a psalm and let the words rhyme it out!

Channel
Is it all about the tithe?
Tell me what is truly treasure.
Is it all about your tithe?
Does Jesus really need your money?

Verse two
Please excuse the mess, now I’m sick, again I guess
Thought there was so much more than this, life I live for YOU.
So quickly now, I’m bored, Can’t take it anymore,
Now I’m facedown on the floor … before YOU.
Looking for treasure, YOU call it treasure. The treasure is YOU. You gave it to me.

Verse three
The treasure you bring, the words that you sing
The life you create in Him
The treasure you bring, not just money that sings
The way that you are,
your life you create in Him

The life you give to him, that’s your gift
It’s what you’ve created
just like Him
daily longing to start
a brand NEW life for HIM.

Outtro
The treasure is me
The treasure is YOU
The treasure is everything we do for YOU.

caught in a dream

i see you lyin' there
caught in a dream
world standing still ... for me
staring you down
i repeatedly lose
myself in you
motionless holding
drawing silence
your breath i take
as i'm caught up
dreamin' of you.

all true passion is born out of anguish

We've held on to our religious rhetoric and revival talk ....
but we've become so passive...
All true passion is born out of anguish.
All true passion for Christ comes out of a baptism of anguish.

remembering David Wilkerson...
had the opportunity to listen ... many times ... in person.
there's something about ... not watching him on a jumbotron.
SPIRIT.

being schooled

how does he know so much
without being schooled?
the question is asking
the answer is clear
it's in the reply
that grips your heart ... and ear.

the GREAT PROTEST

well.  i read that Israel had a similar issue with no jobs, people owing money on property with interest/tax piled high, brothers gouging brothers....the leader just called everyone together, emptied his own pockets and told them all to just STOP.  ....
i know, too simplistic.


The "Great Protest"
    A great protest was mounted by the people, including the wives, against their fellow Jews. Some said, "We have big families, and we need food just to survive."
  Others said, "We're having to mortgage our fields and vineyards and homes to get enough grain to keep from starving."
   And others said, "We're having to borrow money to pay the royal tax on our fields and vineyards. Look: We're the same flesh and blood as our brothers here; our children are just as good as theirs. Yet here we are having to sell our children off as slaves—some of our daughters have already been sold—and we can't do anything about it because our fields and vineyards are owned by somebody else."
   I got really angry when I heard their protest and complaints. After thinking it over, I called the nobles and officials on the carpet. I said, "Each one of you is gouging his brother."
 Then I called a big meeting to deal with them. I told them, "We did everything we could to buy back our Jewish brothers who had to sell themselves as slaves to foreigners. And now you're selling these same brothers back into debt slavery! Does that mean that we have to buy them back again?"
    They said nothing. What could they say?
    "What you're doing is wrong. Is there no fear of God left in you? Don't you care what the nations around here, our enemies, think of you?
   "I and my brothers and the people working for me have also loaned them money. But this gouging them with interest has to stop. Give them back their foreclosed fields, vineyards, olive groves, and homes right now. And forgive your claims on their money, grain, new wine, and olive oil."
     They said, "We'll give it all back. We won't make any more demands on them. We'll do everything you say."
    Then I called the priests together and made them promise to keep their word. Then I emptied my pockets, turning them inside out, and said, "So may God empty the pockets and house of everyone who doesn't keep this promise—turned inside out and emptied."
    Everyone gave a wholehearted "Yes, we'll do it!" and praised God. And the people did what they promised.

training myself

so i read somewhere that we need to train up each other.

go out and train everyone you meet, far and near, in this way of life ....

but then i realized that i am trained by those i listen to and interact with and am related to.

so we keep training each other ... be careful little ears what you hear ....

IDEAS


“Ideas are very important to the shaping of society. In fact, they are more powerful than bombings or armies or guns. And this is because ideas are capable of spreading without limit. They are behind all the choices we make. They can transform the world in a way that governments and armies cannot. Fighting for liberty with ideas makes more sense to me than fighting with guns or politics or political power. With ideas, we can make real change that lasts.”
― Ron Paul, Liberty Defined: The 50 Urgent Issues That Affect Our Freedom

so, i'm not really into politics.  but i REALLY love this IDEA.

MIXED UP

When i separate life into "secular" and "sacred" i get mixed up because these are naturally - MIXED UP.  I still can't separate my body from my mind.  I think they did that once on Star Trek.

Alot of religious stuff was written NOT by priests and clergy or pastors but by building contractors (Nehemiah), shepherd/soldier (David), scholar/teacher (Ezra), fishermen (Peter).  They MIXED IT UP.

President Jefferson (1801-1809) and Madison (1809-1817) had church services in the capitol buildings.  Anyone was invited to preach.  Catholic ministers too.  I don't know why they did it.  They just MIXED IT UP.  It's not a secret.

so today, like yesterday, i will continue to MIX IT UP.  peace.
