My Spirit's Assignment
For what grows in my heart Bears fruit in my mind. It is harvested in my soul And determines my spirit’s assignment.
There is no room for the devil
In my heart’s fertile ground.
There is no room for the devil
In the chest-box of my soul.
There is no room for the devil
To pass through the doorways of my mind.
There is no room for the devil
In my spirit’s home.
...
For what grows in my heart
Bears fruit in my mind.
It is harvested in my soul
And determines my spirit’s assignment.
...
Then let us praise God,
For He gave us expanse
To live our lives in abundance.
He planned out our existence
And designated each their purpose.
...
Glory be to God in the highest!
For he lifts us up when we fall
And makes us stand tall.
He answers when we call.
He loves and conquers all.
...
In the spaces the devil seeks to fill,
God is planting seeds and overseeing their growth.
In the spaces the devil seeks to fill,
God has placed something valuable and protected.
In the spaces the devil seeks to fill,
God has unleashed the Blessing upon my life and uses it to unlock all doors.
In the spaces the devil seeks to fill,
God’s presence, power, love and grace is overflowing, unstoppable.
...
For what grows in my heart
Bears fruit in my mind.
It is harvested in my soul
And determines my spirit’s assignment.
...
The devil has no authority over my life!

If You Love Me, You'll Do It
I met Jason when I was five years old. I could say that I loved him from the moment I saw him. He was so handsome to me and I felt in awe by his presence. When they introduced him as the new kid in school, I wanted to be his friend right away. I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember his smile and how he didn't seem shy. He appeared confident and ready to learn. I waved at him and said "hello," before anyone else could even say a word. He sat next to me, and I asked him if he wanted to be friends. He looked so happy as he said, "Yes!"
