Not Merely a Member of the Flock

She is destined, called
to be more than I, more than the others
around us in the sanctuary,
the members of the flock.
She is called to be more, to do different work
a different calling within the family,
the body of Christ, to carry the staff,
to guide the flock, to counsel, to minister,
to preach the Good News
not merely a member of the flock
She will be a shepherd.
