So, run by me again, the motive force,
the driving principle of all your life.
What is the starting impetus, the source,
for all intentions in taking a wife
or combing hair, or eating food today,
in going out, or coming in the room,
what gives inception to the thoughts you play
with in your head, before they are entombed
within this world as deeds, in history -
that then gives birth to all that comes on next.
What's "chosen" you, & you responded, see
you chose in that response. That's your pre-text,
or its, to claim "you chose of your free-will".
But suff'ring, somehow sets a human will,
as cold after a sauna might until
you start to shiver - then you've had your fill.
Just as Messiah suffered in the flesh,
you too must see that you're equipped yourselves
with that same mental armor. So espesh-
ly suffering's; in any kind of health,
a simple way to help me cease from sin
so as to live the rest of mortal life
not just controlled by my desires in
my fleshly way of living. Which is rife.
For social/ biological its cause,
it matters not, it clarifies things well!
Will life be run by what God's will implores?
Or just desires unbridled, bringing hell?
So, then, just as the Messiah suffered in the flesh, you too must equip yourselves with the same mental armor. Someone who suffers in the flesh has ceased from sin, 2 so as to live the rest of their mortal life no longer controlled by unbridled human desires but led by something much more enduring: the will of God. 1Peter 4:1-2
