When we spend time in God's presence by praying and reading His word, we are set apart from others, and it is obvious that we are different from others. They can see the love of God in us, and we allow   more...God to speak through us, when the message is needed.  less

Tis the season to fill trolleys
Fa la la la laa, la la...la.... lah
Got to buy, must buy
Anatomically incorrect dolls
20 yr old updated toys
Consuming everything but don't know why

You're buying shit you don't   more...even need
Shop shop shop, until you bleed

got to keep spending, stop thinking
Sell your soul
to the queen of the shopper bag
The coupon weilding old hag

Must get that item
No, no! the one with the logo!
The one as seen on
so and...so

You're a walking billboard
Your chest a banner for that team
Your arse a jiggling circus
To boost that fading pop stars name

Up periscope
Take a look around
Land Ahoy!...What's that??

" THE NEW SUPER DUPER, UBER IMPROVED JAR OF JOY!!"

Here, take fifty pounds...

Got to rush home
to feed the turkey
Wrap the cat and roast the dog

A few hours later
and with a little 'mothers helper'
you're in a delicate slumber
falling deeper
falling deep under
your ever increasing collection
of designer, underwear  less
