On the phone...A song-breaking out my hip-hop skillz, lol

I see the people walking,
people walking by,
I hear the people talking,
they don't look me in the eye,
and I- hope that you-- won't pass me by,
and I- hope that you-- won't say goodbye,
As I sit in your presence---...on the phone,

On the phone!
Listening to gentle dial tone,
Beeeeeeep is your pretty moan,
tearing me with meaning unknown,
your response to the heartfelt words i've sown
As I sit in your presence...on the phone

I feel your heart a beating,
Mine is beating too,
I'm longing for a meeting,
a one with me and you,
And I- hear you say-- just what i try
And I- don't hear you say-- that long goodbye
As I sit in your presence---...on the phone

On the phone!
Listening to your music drone,
Voice like a bottle of sweet cologne,
Anger like a fierce cyclone,
You talk to me and I don't feel alone,
As I sit in your presence...on the phone

I love to hear you whisper,
'please hang up and try again"
I can't bear the thought of,
you near other other men,
And I-know your heart--you've gave me the sign,
And I-know your heart--longs to be next to mine,
As I sit in your presence---...on the phone

On the Phone!
For wrong numbers dailed, I feel atoned,
I won't take another clone,
Its you I want, you alone
I think of you, you are my own,
Sweet, sweet lady...on the phone!

Not a poem. I know crazy.

Galations 5:6 The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love.


So then, how does faith express itself through love? James 2:14-25 tells us that "faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead." Therefore the expression of faith is through an outward action. Just as the expression of the "feeling" of repentance is the action of removing sinfulness from ones life, so the expression of the "feeling" of faith is action of love. We can not trully repent without that action, and we can not trully have faith without loving. It is through God's expression of the "feeling" of love for us(ephesians 2:4) that we are redemed by the action of love, Christ's death on the cross(1 john 3:16), and through our expression of our "feeling" of the acceptence of redemption, we are redeemed by the expression of faith, that is shown by our action of love, obedience to God(john 14:15). Therefore our redemption does not remove the law, but rather through the expression of our redemption, it is upheld(romans 3:31).
