Still Quarrying 164: Pentecost

The Shaping of the Days.

He told us to wait.
And we gathered,
And we prayed,
And waited.
Question still hovering:
When?

Then the wind, the rush, the fire.
Nothing we did.
We obeyed and it happened,
The power
To move out into the city,
The nation,
The world,
To speak a message given not made,
And to watch as the Spirit pressed the truth
And brought to faith.

That shaped the days:

To wait, to work, to watch.
