Last night an angel came.
I will give you one wordThe angel bent low and whispered into my ear:
And you must take this word into your heart
And live this word,
Eat and drink,
Inhale and exhale this word.
Absorb this word into your blood,
Into every particle of your being.
Is!Then dissolved into air.
O preachers with all your discourse,
Your obedience,
Your years of theological parsing,
Construction and reconstruction,
Your lessons,
Now I must put them all aside.
I have my word to work on.
