Testimonies
Nicodemus said to Him,
How can a man
be born
when he is old?
[John 3:4]
***********************
"I don't feel NEW, Lord!"
[PATIENT NOD.]
"How COME?"
[CURIOUS GAZE.]
"How old are you,
My beloved?"
(Sheepish grimmace.)
(Ironic look.)
"Old ENOUGH!"
[PATIENT NOD.]
"So......I thought I
was gonna feel really
NEW.....now?"
"Why, My child."
(Wave hand in the air.)
"Well.....Ya know."
[SMILE!]
"No.
I don't,
My beloved."
"Aw!
(Irritated look.)
Come ON!
YOU know WHY!"
[PATIENT GAZE.]
"Tell Me."
"You KNOW!"
[TEASING SMILE!]
"I'm listening,
little one."
(Squirm.)
"You know:
about.......Ya know."
[SMILE!]
"No.
What."
(Ironic squint.)
"YOU..... know!"
[PATIENT SMILE.]
(Close eyes.)
"I can't talk about it."
[PATIENT NOD.]
(Look away.)
"It's too, eh.......PERSONAL."
[LOVING GAZE.]
"I saw you being born,
child."
(Burst out laughing!)
"OY!
YIKES!
ECH!"
[SOLEMN NOD.]
"Yeah;
I was a BREECH birth!
YIKES!"
(Grimmace.)
[PATIENT NOD.]
"So......I guess,
this is like the same
thing, Lord."
[SMILE.]
"What is,
My child."
"This, eh......
being BORN again?
For ME?
A JEWISH person?
(Grimmace!)
It's.....kinda like a
breech birth:
real CLUMSY.....
and PAINFUL!"
"Yes, My beloved.
[PATIENT PAUSE.]
But,
Who is your Deliverer?"
**************************
Therefore,
if any one
is in Christ,
he is a new
creation;
the old
has passed away,
behold,
the new
has come.
[2 Corinthians 5:17]
