After Acts 4:31
After Acts 4:31
I
sit with them
and
listen, hearing
what
happened, how
the
nations raged
and
the people plotted.
The
words turn sideways.
The
room fills. A presence
wells
up, overcomes.
The
shaking begins:
the
shaking of the room,
the
shaking of the heart.
He
speaks:
The
gospel is my opinion
of
you. The gospel is
my
definition of you.
The
gospel is my destiny
for
you. The gospel is
your
journey to me.
The
gospel is my reality
for
you. The gospel is
your
reality of me.
The
gospel is
your
journey,
your
destination,
your
life.
The
gospel is extended
from
my hand,
nail-pierced.
