Inactivity


Romans 7:23  New English Translation

23 But I see a different law in my members waging war against the law of my mind and making me captive to the law of sin that is in my members.                                                                                                           

 

Inactivity

 

Losing ability to think, incapable of initiating thought

Well if you can’t notice it, is it a deficient personality?

It seems that they readily agree and pleasant to be around

And they become just like a soundboard, a sad fatality

 

Having no control over your thoughts as they run in judgment

Without thinking you blabber out whatever comes to mind

Or at times lust comes in and takes you for an unexpected ride

So that you can’t seem to stop somehow until the end grinds

 

Thinking and its content is never classified as such

Compare, judge and recollect seems a good beginning

Create, decide, apprehend, and more than we can touch

These are ours to cherish and supplied for the winter
