Singing will resume sometime....
'As long you're not singing it, Orchi', you reply? (lol)

Mark 7 v.18-23
Thoughts on some Bible verses -
Jesus saying - it's not the things from 'outside' that defile a person
But the things from 'within'
Yet humans are capable of doing a lot of good
As well as a lot of evil
But it's from within, He says
Come evil thoughts, adulteries, murders, etc
There's thirteen things listed in all
Maybe part of the origin of superstitious number thirteen
Probably all springing from 'evil thoughts'
The only way our hearts and minds can be changed
Is by salvation through Jesus
Only way to be made new within
The phrase 'born again' or 'born from above'
Our spirits dead in sin before we come to Christian faith
But our spirits 'born' as we repent and turn to God
Because - the beginning of a life is birth - one is born
Yet also being alive in the womb before birth too
This is how I see it
Though it may seem a 'spiritual' answer or remedy
I can't see no other way
No lasting way anyway
That true peace can or will come to this world
