Haiku for Pentecost
The works that I do,
John’s Jesus assures us, should
be enough for faith.
The works that he does
show his close relationship
with God, his Father.
The works that he does
will also be done, John says,
by those who believe.
Ask me anything,
Jesus says, I will do it.
All to God’s glory!
Show that you love me.
by keeping my commandments.
I’ll send my Spirit.
The Spirit of truth
is sent to stand beside you,
recalling my words..
John’s Jesus is sure,
full of authority, joined
and equal with God.
Peace: his parting gift
to his friends. Don’t be troubled,
do not be afraid.
