How I Felt About it Yesterday

both the best and the worst have come from you

has anyone else ever told you that?

or do you stumble across it here

on these scattered pages

or trip over it there

in my recurring emails

I am fiercely concerned that

as gifted as you are

sometimes, you couldn't get it right

even if God handed you the words

how could I say this?

yesterday and the week-yesterday before

God handed you the words

and you didn't get them right

has anyone else told you

other than me

whom you’ll likely never hear

that you’re too casual with the Bible?
