Poetry
There’s nothing better
than a true Believer
who says God’s name
like it’s real.
Who pronounces
His name like
He’s their close friend
and not a distant deity
adding a string of
official-ness and propriety.
There are those
who are churchy.
There are those
who are spooky
and there are
those who seem
sweeter than sweet
but are out of touch
and out to lunch.
Nobody listens to them
because they speak both
nothing and too much.
But then there are those
who walk and talk like
the life-giving real deal.
Not spewing out some
canned and programmed spiel;
Not giving secret handshakes
and word codes like “square deal.”
Just people who
have the Holy Spirit’s
official seal.
Those are the ones,
when they say God’s name,
I really want to stop to hear.
There are those
when they say
All-Mighty God
then I believe it.
Everyone else
is hopeful
or wishful
or fearful
or tearful
and white-knuckled
and tense
but they’ve
stood face-to-face
they're not on the fence.
They've spoken to Truth
and He’s gone in
and He’s broken through
and their words
punch demons
and their voice
rocks the world
because their
connection is effective
because they’re charged up
and electric.
There are those
who radiate His love
It’s not in their words
or expression
It’s not in their eyes
or complexion.
It’s just in their
life walk.
They don’t have
to say a thing.
They just have
to show up
and the Light goes on
and the atmosphere
that was wrong
is cleaned-up and gone.
These are the ones
I listen to and
most times
they don’t
say a thing.
