Haiku for a preacher
Powerful preaching
from one touched by the Spirit;
the man called Peter,
He preaches Jesus,
given over, put to death;
raised to life once more
The assembled crowd
is deeply moved by his words;
ask, what should we do?.
He tells them “Repent!
Be baptised in Jesus’ name;
ev’ry one of you.
You’ll be forgiven
and you’ll receive the Spirit,
be joined into God.
The promise to you
and all who are far away:
Find your life in God!
