Flesh and separation ...
Romans 8:35
35 Who will separate us from the love of Christ?
Will trouble, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness,
or danger, or sword?
Flesh and separation
Soothing is the sound of the song called: “bitterness”
It fills all the longings in the search for revenge
Oh flesh! You’re dressed in utmost filthiness
How to get you of the playing field to be forever benched?
Feelings drive you constantly in search of satisfaction
and with both hands you grab what you can get
You beguile the “me” through almost every distraction
And catch me every day in your encircling net
To escape from you is impossible as you’re in my old heart
Your deceit is close to impeccable in disguise almost perfect
You cuffed me to impalpable by stroking my failing smarts
In Christ it is now possible to separate you from God’s Spirit
