Preachers
It doesn't matter if you don't say it very well.
It is probably better if you don't.
For if, in trying to frame words of eloquence
to speak the glory of the Lord
it happens that you
bark like a dog,
or croak like a frog,
philosophers may choose to pass you by.
But the dogs and frogs will understand,
and with one voice glorify
the Lord of all creation.

I didn't hear you barking or croaking today, Gordon. But I heard God speaking to me through your preaching!
Thanks a lot and praise to God!

Thank you, sincerely.
I needed that encouragement for my short, inept preaching tonight.
Is that original?
It's quite a nice little prose-poem.
Thanks The Pook
It just popped into my head more or less complete, yesterday morning.
