Preface

Thank you for taking a moment to read a few pieces that I believe was inspired by God. The whole purpose of this book is to encourage, to shed the light of truth onto controversial areas, and to enjoy a few works of art that I’ve written from my personal perspective. All of the pieces are themed around Christ and having an intimate relationship with Him in some sort or another.

Introduction Piece

Who Am I?

Paradigm, God gave me that name because He had a shift in mind

A shift that shakes your thinking Ruffles your Feathers and Rattles your cages

With words sharper than two edges,

Harder than pavement,

Breaking up stony ground with one distinct sound

As I open my ear He speaks today

Go get my people, don’t let them go Astray!

Image of Worship

The image of worship is not a posture we assume during a song

It’s a choice to believe God when everything seems to be going wrong

True worship cannot be faked because it only comes from within

It doesn’t disguise itself in a dressed up temple full of sin

Ya see true worship is birthed

Though some try to pretend

Lifting dirty hands repeatedly

When will this madness end?

And we begin to go after God again

In spirit and in truth is how it
