ALL KINDS OF KINDS

Snippet

The more we let God take us over, the more truly ourselves we become - because He made us. He invented us. He invented all the different people that you and I were intended to be. . .It is when I turn to Christ, when I give up myself to His personality, that I first begin to have a real personality of my own.” ― C.S. Lewis

Scripture

All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he distributes them to each one, just as he determines. 1 Corinthians 12:11 NIV

All Kings of Kinds by Miranda Lambret

Ilsa was an acrobat who went and fell in love with that

Horatio the human cannonball.

A weddin' 'neath the big top tent with barkers clowns and elephants

Sideshow family oddities and all.

The dog-faced boy howled out with joy

As the tattooed lady was crying.

Ever since the beginning to keep the world spinning

It takes all kinds of kinds.

Thomas was a congressman with closets full of skeletons

And dresses that he wore on Friday nights.

Phyllis was a pharmacist, a dab of that, a pinch of this

Concocted to suppress her appetite.

When the children were fiddlin' she'd slip 'em some Ritalin

And wait for Thomasina to arrive.

Cause ever since the beginning to keep the world spinning

It takes all kinds of kinds.

All kinds of kinds.

When I play this old guitar from children's shows to smoky bars

I take a break and think about the past.

When I stood up in geometry and everybody stared at me

And I tossed my test into the trash.

I scratched off my number while hitching out under

That bush league population sign.

Ever since the beginning to keep the world spinning

It takes all kinds of kinds.

Now some point a finger and let ignorance linger

If they'd look in the mirror they'd find.

That ever since the beginning to keep the world spinning

It takes all kinds of kinds.

All kinds of kinds.

All kinds of kinds.

Sentence Prayer

God of word and rest and pleasure,

Grant that what we do this week may be for us an offering

Rather than a burden;

And for those we serve, may it be the help they need.

Amen
