Not Holding Back

Nothing retained, kept for themselves,
trusting, faith alone, giving all
not holding back
Selling what was theirs alone
giving the proceeds
all they had, to the community
trusting, believing
Giving all to the disciples,
to the apostles, fired by Pentecost flames
Sharing all they had, in faith
giving so that others who know hunger
that all would be provided for
as any had need
