A Mighty Wind
A MIGHTY WIND
without warning
a mighty gale force filled the
room
without warning
it spread Holy wildfires hot
flume
without warning
flames of spiritual tongues
consume
miraculously
different dialects spoken in
truth
miraculously
crowds gathered in awe and stood
mute
miraculously
understood as Holy Spirit bore
fruit
promises
fulfilled from the beginning of
days
promises
completing God’s merciful
way
promises
a ‘Counselor’ to help guide and
amaze
