Jimmy Baker's Mind,
Jimmy Baker's Spirit
Demon
( Scene: Mind and Spirit are in bed. Jimmy's Body is still up. Twilight enters,
serious and important)
Twilight: (monotone) 2:03 am. (pause) Just like any other night Little Jimmy/Jamie
Baker brushed his teeth (Body acts it out) and washed his face. (pause) 2:09
am. (pause) Just like any other night Little Jimmy Baker said a prayer, (Body,
act it out) and went to bed. (pause) 2:18 am. (pause) Not like any other night
in Little Jimmy Baker's life (excitement growing) (lights strobe slowly), Little
Jimmy Baker slipped through a mystical tear warped through the very fabrics
of time and space, a portal if you will ! A portal to a place of awesome truths
to be uncovered and lies to be revealed and shattered. (voice rising to an insane
excitement) Changing normal lives forever, making them totally useless to the
traditional worldly ways, Diminishing the deadly grip of religion, society,
and every evil of all around. (monotone) An incredible place where you can find
love, (lights strobe faster) not of this world (voice rising again) But
a love of mercy and grace. (screaming) The love of GOD ALL MIGHTY!!!! Hem, hem,
(monotone) 8:33 am. (pause) Little did Little Jimmy Baker know that when he
awoke he would find himself learning about himself in the TRUTH of LIFE ZONE.
(Lights strobe as fast as possible, then suddenly stop pitch dark) (Twilight
walks slowly off stage).
(Mind Body Spirit under blanket, in synchronization sit up, stretch and yawn)
Body: 5 more minutes, mommy/
Spirit: Praise the Lord ! Another day to live, another day to shine! Thank you
Jesus for ever..............(cut off by mind)
Mind: No time for that now (throws off blankets) we overslept so...(looks at
clock) that leaves us with 15 minutes ...so...... that's 10 minutes to shower...5
minutes to pack. I guess we can drop prayer and skip the breakfast ...... leaving
just enough time to catch the bus on time.
Body/Spirit: (synchronized) What??
Body: I'm hungry
Spirit: So am I
Mind: OK, I can be reasonable. I'll shorten the shower 5, minutes leaving us
5 minutes to either pray or eat a healthy well balanced meal. I would choose
the breakfast, but don't let me influence you.
Body: I have to choose!!
Mind/Spirit: Yes
Body: Well I am hungry and need my noot....nutritty....uh..... my healthy stuff,
but I also know man doesn't live on bread alone..................uh.......I......uh......OOH
I have an idea!
Mind/Body: You Do??
Body: Yes, We could eat breakfast then pray in the shower.
Spirit: Brilliant.
Mind: Hold it! That's disgusting!
Spirit: (exaggerating sarcasm) What? God may need to cover His eyes?
Mind: Ha. ha. but no washing and praying don't mix! What if while praying you
are distracted and end up missing a spot?
Spirit: So?
Mind: So the spot you miss will become a spot of manifesting bacteria multiplying
and growing until we get some disease! And I don't think I'm prepared to handle
something like that.
Body: Well maybe we can eat in the shower?
Mind/Spirit: Quiet!
Spirit: Well maybe we can skip the shower.
Mind: (mockingly) Yeah, but isn't cleanliness next to Godliness.
Body: I'm too hungry; showering can wait, and who needs to pray? (spirit drops
to knees in prayer)
Mind: (clutch head) Noooo! I'm Losing control!
Body: Hey! shut up its my body.
Mind: (falling apart) You are just a bag of bones I'm the smart one.
Body: You are the one who kept us up all night! That's why we overslept.
Mind: It was improving our street smarts.
Body: It was the COPS marathon!!
Mind: So, What's your point!
Body: uh....I.....uh
Mind: Dumb and speechless as usual (holds up clock) and now it's two minutes
to SHOWER.
Body: NO, it's two minutes to eat my corn pops.
Mind: Yeah, well......(cut off by spirit)............
Spirit: ( reveals ref. shirt and blows whistle) All right boys, listen up! If
we just follow God we will have a much better day. He will strengthen me, provide
for you, and give you the mind of Christ. In the long run it will be much better
off! So choose now! Follow God or be a slave to your worldly needs!
Body: Uh....I.....uh....
Spirit: Well?
Body: I will follow God (pauses). Hey, my hunger is easing up. I can barely
feel it........ No wait, it's gone.
Mind: (sniffle- meekly) I lost control.
Spirit: All righty then, we will follow God (Mind cries), and we will like it
(Mind stops crying).
(Pray about stuff - Body picks up Bible)
Body: Galatians 5: 7-18 (covers up ref. shirt and smiles, mouthing Bible verse)
For the Flesh wars against the Spirit and the Spirit against the Flesh and these
are contrary to one another, so that you do not do what you wish, but if you
follow the Spirit you are not under the law.
Mind: Deja vu.
Body: What?
Mind: Never mind.
Body: I'm sorry Lord, Let me be led by the Spirit, amen.
Spirit: Awe!! (Group Hug)
( Mind, Body, Spirit freeze- Twilight enters)
Twilight: 8:48 am. (pause) So ends another life changing trip to the Truth of
Life Zone. Little Jimmy Baker now understands that if he is led by the Spirit
he can do the things he wishes without being lead into darkness (demon enter)
Demon: Wait, Wait! What is that supposed to mean?
Twilight: It means if we follow what God is telling our Spirit Man to do, we
will not end up being led around by the likes of you!
Demon: But that's not fair!
Twilight: Well, well, well. All is fair in love and war. This is both. (James
Bond shot)
Demon: NOOOO (runs off stage).
Twilight: (laughs) I always enjoy doing that! Uuntil the next bizarre case of
Spiritual teaching in strange ways to the unknowing ... Farewell ..
