Sharing the Word

Fergus Buchanan May 26, 2016 0 0

Acts 10:44-46

While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit came on all who heard the message. 45 The circumcised believers who had come with Peter were astonished that the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out even on Gentiles. 46 For they heard them speaking in tongues and praising God.

A motor-bike  roar

A child’s cry

A dog barked

The sun blazed down on all

And into the room

Where the Word was opened

And people gave mind to the Eternal,

Listening for another sound,

The Voice that would speak

Hope against despair,

Calm against anxiety,

Truth against confusion.

 

All around

The world went its way.

Windows framed the passing strangers,

Drifting without a glance.

But here the Spirit worked,

Eternity breaking through,

Touching hearts,

Realising the promise of the Voice,

Streams of living water

Flowing out

Refreshing the earth.

 

Thank you for the fulfilment of sharing the Word.
