Friday of the 6 th week of Easter

Do not be afraid to speak out.
Nor allow yourself to be silenced.
So much easier to remain silent than your truth shout.
And assume all truth anyway is nuanced.I have so many people on my side in this city.
That no one will even attempt to hurt you.
Thus said St Paul in Corinth’s city.
And all this applies to to me and you.

Well eventually he got his head cut off.
But his indomitable courage still inspires.
But I suppose I’ll go on remaining silent rather than sound off.
Courage and spirit tires.

So Paul stayed there preaching.
And we keep on hesitating.

……….

Speak, be not afraid
And you must not be silenced
Whoever says no

See Acts 18: 9-18
