Fishermen – 3 – v2

They were fishermen, ordinary men

unordained believers, cast into the sea

into the wilderness, the desert, the world

to become fishers of men, changed forever

knowing Jesus, not enough alone

needing to be emboldened further, tempered

The indwelling Spirit, the Spirit of God

growing power within them,

giving them power, authority

to heal, to preach, to speak truth to power

to spread the Good News to the Temple,

to the streets, out into the world
