Sensory Overload
by Kenneth L.
Birks
In a world
filled with sensory overload, we relate.
With sensory
overload, Satan seeks to captivate.
With media,
and other sources, he exalts himself
above God.
Master of his
domain, daily through all means, he
saturates.
In a maze of
propensities, opinions, and maxims, we
walk.
In a world
lying under Satan’s sway, he easily
leads astray.
In a world
gone wrong, how do we stay the narrow
way?
With sensory
overload, how do we resist the world’s
squeeze?
Ears tuned to
the Holy Spirit and God’s Holy word; we
trust.
With the Word
and Spirit, we go forward without
disgust.
As kingdom
values take hold, we come under its
influence.
Under the
sway of Jesus, worldliness loses its
dominance.
Yielded to
God’s ways, vision fills with fervency and
zeal.
With hearts
set above, sensory overload loses its
appeal.
As bondage to
the world disintegrates, freedom
appears.
With vision
restored, the mind fills with kingdom
perceptions.
No longer
captivated, weights lifted, without
weariness, we run.
Passion
ignited, in zeal and fervency, we reach
for new sights.
Free to mount
up on eagle wings, we soar to new
heights.
As senses
renew, fresh winds blow with a spirit of
newness.
Our two
guides guiding in harmony, we yield to
their authority.
Never leading
astray, we’re content trusting in their
ability.
Taken deeper,
we’re shown the wonders of God’s
Kingdom.
In power, we
stand in awe and wonder with glory
revealed.
Standing in
wonder with all shown, we yield in
submission.
