Witness


After I John 1:1-4

He was there
from the beginning.
I heard him
I saw him
I watched him
I touched him
with my own hands.
I walked with him
I sailed boats with him
     boats on the small sea
     boats in calm
     boats in storm
It is because of these things
that I do what I do,
an ongoing infusion of testimony
empowering life, my life
and yours if you have
ears to hear
eyes to see
minds to know
hearts to believe.

Glynn, I love these verses in I John, and you've put living color into the original poetic words.
