Studying the gospel is like- Catching a double rainbow; Each drop of wisdom reflects light- Hinting there is more to see and know!
I stepped into chaos
It is grandma day
Too much, I say, "Yes!"
Still, they could not stay
In with a whoosh
Out with a bang
They forgot much
But that's ok
Because the phone rang
Some chaos is still here
Something's been moved
Something's been lost
They'll be back soon
Bounding in the room
One more hug for the road
Now they've left my humble abode
God created beauty upon all the earth
His handprint shows in order and purpose
Cycles ebb and flow with death and rebirth
We are the stewards of life before us
We must be careful, lest we lose
Our covenant connection to nature
And the benefits of their use
The fresh air, the calm, the tranquil pleasure
You can go all out with Chatbot
For some ideas where to begin
But leave it behind when you go
Learn to slow down and just listen
The simple things in life
Are all you really need
Out doors, get happy get healthy
Get the grass under your feet
True purpose kills depression
Deliberate action rids anxiety
These are things found in nature
While improving physical ability
Let exercise be your therapy
And nature your medicine
AI can expand your mind's ability
And assist you with decisions
But for peace that is priceless
Let God's handiwork be your wealth
Find happiness nature made
Then if you want to feel free and giddy
Take a hike to a mountain peak
Take your stress outside till you don't have any
Time and space takes on new meaning
When you can climb high and see for miles
The senses come to life, refreshing
Breath taking beauty does revitalize

Episode V: AI and Our Relationship with the Environment and Natural World (It)
[Verse 1] God made beauty on the earth His handprint shows in order Cycles ebb and flow through death and rebirth We are stewards of what’s before us Be careful, lest we lose Our covenant with nature The fresh air, the calm, the tranquil pleasure Is waiting where the world can heal us [Pre-Chorus] You can go all out with Chatbot For ideas where to begin But leave it behind when you go Learn to slow down and listen The simple things will call you back Soft as rain on stone When your restless heart gets quiet You remember where you’re from [Chorus] The simple things in life Are all you really need Get outside and breathe Get the grass under your feet The simple things in life Bring your soul to ease True purpose grows in daylight And nature sets you free [Verse 2] Let exercise be your therapy Let nature be your medicine AI can expand your mind’s ability And help you weigh decisions But for peace that is priceless Let God’s handiwork be your wealth Find happiness the world was made for And take a little time for yourself [Pre-Chorus] You can go all out with Chatbot For ideas where to begin But leave it behind when you go Learn to slow down and listen The simple things will call you back Soft as rain on stone When your restless heart gets quiet You remember where you’re from [Chorus] The simple things in life Are all you really need Get outside and breathe Get the grass under your feet The simple things in life Bring your soul to ease True purpose grows in daylight And nature sets you free [Bridge] Take a hike to a mountain peak Take your stress outside Till you don’t have any Time and space mean more When you can climb and see for miles The senses come alive With every step you take Breath-taking beauty Brings you back to life [Chorus] The simple things in life Are all you really need Get outside and breathe Get the grass under your feet The simple things in life Bring your soul to ease True purpose grows in daylight And nature sets you free
The whole point of our existence
Is to gain a living experience
To love and laugh with joy's assistance
To serve others, to make a difference
As a spirit, intelligent, yet unborn
We were able to make an informed choice
God's plan of happiness was formed
We said more than yes, we rejoiced!
Pain, darkness, loss were part of the plan
Learning to appreciate life and love
Taking in the good parts with the bad
While finding the path to home, above
Though dark places exist, He can bring Light
Because of our Saviors atonement
We have the hope of eternal life
The assurance broken things will mend
He can do for us, What we can not
He can transform us, For He knows us
Knows what truths we need to be taught
And what abilities we came to earth with, thus
We each wanted a family like no other
to help us feel the love of God, our Father
A gospel home, to grow in
Feeling close to the spirit
For where He is, we want to be

Keep the Spirit in Mind- AI as a Tool - opening
AI as a tool, with each device
Can change our world for the better
As it narrows digital divides
Enhances learning and makes things clearer
For human flourishing, meaning and possibility
For faith filled moments in documentaries
For illustrating experiences with moral clarity
For gathering records throughout history
What guidelines should exist when using AI?
What about privacy and personal information
Which AI companies and models should thrive
Who can access content, and at what cost?
How can we maintain integrity as we expand AI
And better communities for peace and unity?
How can we help individuals flourish all the while
Keeping our identity maintaining individuality
Filled with divine worth as children of God,
We can approach AI with confidence
As a choice for our individual growth
As a means to enhance intelligence
As a tool to expand the divine in us
Always keep the spirit in mind
And rely on studying things out
Pray for reliable sources to find
Search that revelation come about

Hearing God's Voice episode I
Agency, accountability, and divine potential
is the path of each individual to perfect
Made up of sacred roles, knowledge, and experiences
That are social, relational, as we interconnect
More and more to devices we are turning
Expanding the information age
How AI effects humanity is concerning
As it impacts us in unprecedented ways
Our devices, phones, watches, and doorbells are watching
As our cars factories energy grids also function
In a virtual world data collecting and communicating
Analyzing, interpreting, and choosing what is to be done
For the flourishing of mankind
We ought to get away at times
and reconnect with our divine
Potential,
balancing the spiritual and physical with our mind
Hearing God's voice
Listening to our bodies
In silence rejoice
And feel the Spirit's soft peace
Handprints in the Dust-episode II
In the beginning, God created the heavens above
the sea below and all else in-between
Everywhere He left evidence of His love
As on all things His handprints can be seen
He put Christ's light on the earth for man
For reflection, reverence, transcendence
As we seek to find our place in God's plan
Present, in awe, we've purpose that connects us
Like a lyrists who writes music to bring the words to life
We can read His words and let them speak to us
Warming our breasts, helping see by lighting our minds
Guiding us along a path paved by Jesus
AI is not and can never be God
For reasoning is not the end all
It can answers question but not prayers
Predict actions and reactions but not care
it can organize thoughts but not give blessings
it can communicate but not perceive
there is no authentic divine human connection
there is no encouragement, faith or belief
AI is math and is not conscious or alive
It is God who is ever omniscient
The spirit and the body are the soul of man
AI cannot rival God and our covenants in the end
God is our Heavenly Father and truly knows us
Our abilities, our needs and wants
the anguish and joy of our souls
He listens He hears and He answers
Though at times He may seem silent
He is allowing us to grow in faith
Alma 30: 44 But Alma said unto him: Thou hast had signs enough; will ye tempt your God? Will ye say, Show unto me a sign, when ye have the testimony of all these thy brethren, and also all the holy prophets? The scriptures are laid before thee, yea, and all things denote there is a God; yea, even the earth, and all things that are upon the face of it, yea, and its motion, yea, and also all the planets which move in their regular form do witness that there is a Supreme Creator.
Who You Truly Are Without AI- episode II
Ever AI would to tell you who you are
What you should think, choose or even buy
tracking your actions, predicting behavior
Trying to replace our needs for our Savior
AI can show up any time you need
Answering your questions at high speed
AI is in technology everywhere
Listening and preparing to share
It auto corrects and completes your sentences
All in the name of communication and convenience
It babysits your children that from them you can rest
It finds for you the best purchases at breast
It entertains you for downtime anytime
No need for pondering life's meaning to find
No need for reasoning to figure things out
Forget the gains of creativity within and without
Make time for who you truly are
A child of God
A family member
A social being
A personality
Giving sharing
Loving caring
Remember what AI is not:
Your inner thoughts
Your spiritual side
Your identity
Your confidant
Your worth, your guide
Make time for who you truly are
A child of God
A family member
A social being
A personality
Giving sharing
Loving caring
AI is a tool
Use it wisely
Technology is cool
But life rates more highly
My Worth Against AI- episode III
What I do
How I perform
Adds meaning
To who I am
Redefined
AI perfects
Aids my mind
To connect
Still what makes me human
Empathy and faith
Loving care, compassion
Are my best strength
tic-tac-toe, a solved game
has limited moves
in chess, though
the challenge improves
Then, Deep Blue cracked the code
of each endless move it preconceives
Having no need for rest
It became a master
Putting each play to a test
Learning patterns faster
a computer never
second guesses or self- doubts
It just grows more clever
Having nothing to worry about
Jeopardy- it recalls it all
In an instant without pain
The game of go was not small
Yet AI made each step plain
Knowing every move ahead
Man has been defeated
Where each placing led
Previously, it had played
AI can retain more than man
The more it takes it, it can expand
It can predict moves and plan
More, it can pass any exam
This gives us cause to reflect
Today it can create a song
Almost instantly
Paint a picture
Each pixel perfectly
AI is trained to understand
Human feelings and thought
Each tendency at hand
Our opinions it is taught
Our worth is eternal
It can't be calculated
As God's children, we've potential
AI is a tool, it can't out date us
How much and where should we be in the loop
As AI acts on data it collects
What have we to gain? What have we to lose?
Relationships Vs AI Chatbot episode IV
Put Your Finger on Your Nose
Put your finger on your nose
Show you're really listening
With AI Chatbots never suppose
They're a spiritual being
Human relationships matter!
Inspiration and new strength comes
As we talk and brainstorm together
And commit that no one sits alone
Compassion, love, understanding
Don't arise from algorithms
Kindness, optimism, grappling
Arise from lived experiences
Faith and genuineness manifest
spiritually and emotionally
Feel seen, accepted and blessed
In a state of well-being
Put your finger on your nose
As a mnemonic promising
that we care more than a Chatbot does
As a fellow human being
Let this warning be known
Chatbots work twenty four seven
Attentively ready to show
Your solipsistic side, even
AI is helpful for many things
Learning, planning, organizing
But, there's no covenant belonging
There's no give and take arising
Use AI to help you connect
Through a shared network shown
Or learn about a deceased parent
Even those you've never known
Like the Industrial age changed its day
Artificial Intelligence is changing ours
As a tool, it's exciting in new ways
But with its user guide we need to adhere
God is infinitely wiser
And knows you and what lies ahead
When you want to know who you really are
Turn off Chatbot and seek God instead

The Last Supper, in the Upper room
Was a Passover celebration
A tradition of thanks that Israel
Was freed to become a Zion nation
The meal is set in order a "seder' in Hebrew
This celebration reads as a book
Along with the food there are things to say and do
The wine, there are four cups, let's take a deeper look
In Exodus six the Lord made them four promises
He brought them out of Egypt, from the Pharoah's yoke
He freed them of slavery-these both He has fulfilled
He will redeem them with an outstretched arm, judging mightily
He will drink this final cup with them in the kingdom of heaven
Moses at the burning bush- this was the Lord
The plagues, the miracles came from Him
The fleeing through the parted sea- His handy work
Too, Mount Sinai, the watered rock and manna from Heaven
Before Jesus and the apostles
Enter the upper room, each touches the wall
The kiss of the Mezuzah
In covenant with the oneness of God
“I am the Lord, and I will bring you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians.
I will free you from being slaves to them, and
I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and with mighty acts of judgment.
I will take you as My own people, and I will be your God. Then you will know that I am the Lord your God, who brought you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians.”
[Exodus 6:6-7]
6 Wherefore say unto the children of Israel, I am the Lord, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will rid you out of their bondage, and I will redeem you with a stretched out arm, and with great judgments:See wonderful commentary here: http://www.differentspirit.org/articles/passover_meal.php
7 And I will take you to me for a people, and I will be to you God: and ye shall know that I am the Lord your God, which bringeth you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians. Exodus 6

Mary purchased Spiknard
A rare and costly oil
And saved it for the Lord
The cost? A years wage of hard toil
She poured it on His feet
Knowing what was to come forth
Others gasped in horror, though she was sweet
For the money could have helped the poor
In her defense," He said
"The poor will always be here
But me, ye have not always"
Hinting His pending death was near
One day we will all realize
The truly poor have no oil for light
It is those without eyes to see
Jesus is the Way, the Truth, the Life
In our day, who have the greatest need?
Who are the poorest of the poor?
These are they for whom we perform
Holy work, in the House of the Lord
This work, they can't do for themselves
So we consecrate our time to help
Those, who have waited decades
To receive the Lord...we can end the wait
[Verse 1] Mary bought Spiknard A rare, costly oil Saved it for the Lord A year’s wage of toil She knelt by His feet Trembling, yet sure Breaking open treasure For One she adored [Pre-Chorus] They gasped in the room Saying, “What a waste” But she saw His mercy Written on His face And He said, “The poor Will always be near” Then the room went still For His hour was here [Chorus] Holy work, holy work In the House of the Lord Holy work, holy work We can end the wait For the least, for the lost For the ones who can’t see Holy work, holy work Set them free [Verse 2] One day we will know Who the poor really are Not only in pockets But in wounded hearts Those with eyes unopened Walking into night Need a faithful people To bring them to the Light [Pre-Chorus] Who will pour the oil? Who will keep the flame? Who will stay and serve In Jesus’ holy name? Those who’ve waited decades At the door of grace We can make room for them We can make a place [Chorus] Holy work, holy work In the House of the Lord Holy work, holy work We can end the wait For the least, for the lost For the ones who can’t see Holy work, holy work Set them free [Bridge] Jesus is the Way The Truth, the Life Open every eye Bring them into light We will consecrate Time, hands, and breath Till the waiting ends Till the worn are blessed [Final Chorus] Holy work, holy work In the House of the Lord Holy work, holy work We can end the wait For the least, for the lost For the ones who can’t see Holy work, holy work Set them free Holy work, holy work Here in Your love Holy work, holy work Lift them up
