Me Likey!

Church Of Ireland

I was impressed at a recent funeral and thought that i'd give 'Church Of Ireland' a try. I went to a service on a recent Sunday evening and was not let down. We read these verses many times and talked about them. I'm sure most of you are very familiar with these but in my opinion, they're none the less legendary!

Luke 4:1-13

¹ Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, left the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, ² where for forty days he was tempted by the devil. He ate nothing during those days, and at the end of them he was hungry.

³ The devil said to him, “If you are the Son of God, tell this stone to become bread.”

⁴ Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone.’”

⁵ The devil led him up to a high place and showed him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world. ⁶ And he said to him, “I will give you all their authority and splendor; it has been given to me, and I can give it to anyone I want to. ⁷ If you worship me, it will all be yours.”

⁸ Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God and serve him only.’ ”

⁹ The devil led him to Jerusalem and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. “If you are the Son of God,” he said, “throw yourself down from here. ¹⁰ For it is written:

“‘He will command his angels concerning you
to guard you carefully;
¹¹ they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.’ ”

¹² Jesus answered, “It is said: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’^{e

¹³ When the devil had finished all this tempting, he left him until an opportune time

'Foo Fighters' have a new single with similar title so i'll get sentimental to a poem of mine.

"Ropes"

The first thing they do is cut the rope
but Mother holds you close
and aloft.

The second thing that happens is being shown the ropes,
all new ones
that don't smell like home.

The third thing that happens is being pulled out to war.
Keep your enemies close
just to keep your friends closer.

The fourth thing that happens is you pass the buck,
with what's left of your will,
then you plan your way home

The last thing they do is cut the rope.
Hope your next-of-kin holds you close
and sees you down

A miniscule way to pay homage to JC. Wish I could be more like the lyrics in this song.

In the absence of your love
And in the absence of human touch
I have decided I’m throwing my arms around
Around Paris because only stone and steel accept my love

In the absence of your smiling face
I traveled all over the place
and I have decided I’m throwing my arms around
Around Paris because only stone and steel accept my love
I’m throwing my arms around
Around Paris because only stone and steel accept my love

I’m throwing my arms around Paris because
Nobody wants my love
Nobody wants my love
Nobody needs my love
Nobody wants my love

Yes you made yourself plain
Yes you made yourself very plain

Bump into an old flame and remember an old pain

"The L Word"

She was dynamite,
with an hourglass figure
and porcelain teeth.

I was the perfect match.

She had an acid tongue
and a short fuse.

I was the perfect match
to rub her the wrong way
And blow it,
whilst on a trip from a drunken kiss
that did not mean anything

She had a potty mouth
and the shit hit the fan!

Nice to see these two guys getting recognition!
