SPEAKING

The dumb ass spoke

Under divine power:

Lord, at least,

Make such use of me.

Abner, general

Of those against God’s king

Could speak truth: allow truth

To come even from me.

Necho, King of Egypt,

Could convey to Josiah

The word of God: let thy word

Issue by me.

But much more, make me

A suitable instrument,

A vessel consistent

With the message.

Let the trumpet tone

Be true; the string, tautened

By Thee, be undiscordant; the bell

Chime clear!

I'm safely back from Bhutan and India where I had a very good time.  I've been a bit busy since.
