- Pastor Martin Niemöller -

In Germany they first came for the Communists,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist.

Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew.

Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Catholics,
and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant.

Then they came for me —
and by that time no one was left to speak up.

Constant Craving


Constant Craving :

Even through the darkest phase
Be it thick or thin
Always someone marches brave
Here beneath my skin

Constant craving
Has always been

Maybe a great magnet pulls
All souls towards truth
Or maybe it is life itself
That feeds wisdom
To its youth

Constant craving
Has always been

Craving
Ah ha
Constant craving
Has always been
Has always been
Has always been...
**********************

This song reminds me of two things
First, my constant craving to get closer to God.
An at the same time I once prayed to the Lord to fulfill my,
constant craving for a good wife.
I am blessed to this day, with Joyce.
Still, I am on a daily rock climb as my desire to be
closer to Him, has never diminished...

"TO SERVE"


"To Serve"

If you want to be important—wonderful.
If you want to be recognized—wonderful.
If you want to be great—wonderful.
But recognize, that he who is greatest among you, shall be your servant.
That's a new definition of greatness.

And this morning, the thing that I like about it:
by giving that definition of greatness,
it means,
that everybody can be great,
because everybody can serve.

You don't have to have a college degree, to serve.
You don't have to make your subject and your verb agree, to serve.
You don't have to know about Plato and Aristotle, to serve.
You don't have to know Einstein's theory of relativity, to serve.
You don't have to know the second theory of thermodynamics in physics, to serve.

You only need a heart full of grace,
a soul generated by love.
And you can be that servant!

**"To Serve" is an excerpt from
"The Drum Major Instinct" Sermon
Delivered by - Rev Martin Luther King Jr.
@ Ebenezer Baptist Church,
Atlanta, Georgia, February 4, 1968**

It Is September The 11th, From Me To You


It is a crisp, cool, foggy fall day.
My walk with Tribble dog is now through.
It is September the 11th, from me to you.

Frantic emails from friends at work,
It’s on the net and radio, can you see this on your home TV?
A small plane crash, like Patsy Cline’s Mountain but is it all true?
It is September the 11th, from me to you.

The anchorwoman say’s that there is just a little bit of falling debris.
“Oh my God!” the whole freaking building is coming down, is what I see!
4 – 5 – 6 more planes are on the way?
No one has a clue…
It is September the 11th, from me to you.

My wife and I are now going to work, past the Calgary International Airport we go.
We see all the passenger planes parked wing tip to wing tip, row upon row.
No jet contrails, no aircraft sounds and for the first time in my life, only the birds flew.
It is September the 11th, from me to you.

Our minds are not on our work, as we are numb through this whole day.
For we hear stories of those who died, helping those who had to stay.
Later more stories of those who bravely stopped the evil that flew.
It is September the 11th, from me to you.

Entombed in the mountains of debris are up to 3,000 dead, what can one do?
To fight the evil of man, God has shown me, the same as you.
That we must help those who are down, troubled and stand up for love and what is true.
For from this hell we should have learned,

that this was our wake up call, that we all went through.
It is September the 11th, from me to you.

For September 11th
