Like A River

On his way back home singing worship 
chant's in his mind making basic 
proclamation of who he is in Christ 
As usual.
He got home,
The air was cozy, his mind was 
fluctuating like that of a broken radio 
"How is he, hope his better, this 
should not be happening"
Yes!
It was impossible
He went to his room laid down, 
played
With his phone for a while, stood up, 
went out again with his siblings...
Caught looking at the clouds making 
jokes about the weather, they heard 
a loud call
That was the voice of his mother
They all rushed to her finding a small 
fence demarcating them she said
"Don't come close, where your face 
mask and go get me water"
They obeyed but did not care 
about distance 
The love they had was greater than fear
After keeping her company for a while 
he with his brother to the near-by hospital 
after getting some info of the situation 
from her
They watched from afar,
Calculated the situation 
They could not get in due to the security.
So they had to turn back.
On the way back they heard a scream
"Yay!!! You people have killed my 
brother oo!!!"
His aunt ran to his Mon
"Sister take heart, just take heart"
"You have to be strong because of 
what I want to tell you"
The moment he heard these words 
he knew that something was wrong..
His eyes started twitching like a 
an electonic system experiencing a 
glitch,
He's body flowing with electricity, 
he's heart racing like a horse ..
He was running but did not know 
where he was going..
Then he suddenly stopped.
" I have the spirit in full,
I am HomoChristus,
Extension of His presence, 
Person, love.
People see me they see Jesus, 
they see His fire in my eyes"
Immediately he calmed
He walked to the gate of the hospital, 
The cloud was dark.
It was about to rain, the wind was 
strong...
He plugged his phone at the saloon 
close by,
Desperate to update the brother in 
Jeans and T-shirt.
He went back to the hospital, 
then he called the brother
"Sir, good evening sir"
"XYZ right"
"Yes sir" smiling
"How are you"
"Sir I'm fine oo.. they just said that 
daddy is sleeping but I believe he 
would wake up"
"Amen"
"I just wanted to inform you"
"Okay that's good, be confident"
"Yes sir"
It was like a military phone call..haha
He looked at his older brother he was 
not crying too somehow had a very 
firm reaction
His older brother said
"They said daddy is dead"
"Ya, looks like" He replied
He looked at the elder and said to him
"Don't worry he would come back"
The elder said in tears
"Buh bug but"
He cut him off
"We were given the spirit in full. 
Don't worry I would be okay"
He went to the back window with 
his brother and looked at the body...
It looked like he was sleeping but 
without breathing
He spoke in tounges to refuse the 
occurrence, but any time he opened 
his mouth that peace that he can not 
explain would kick in.
He was not bothered at all!
His brother said to him
 "come let's go home"
He obeyed...
Hearing the screaming and tears on 
their way back, their uncle looked
at them with tears in his eyes. 
Stopped crying and started again.
The look said a lot..
"Why are these boys not crying
What is happening to them"
It was as if they could read his mind
He and his brother laughed and 
took a shott cut home..
When they got home the whole 
house did a basic all-night tradition 
but this time it was just early...
they prayed like never before at 
least they tried to
Shouted, sang..the atmosphere 
was charged.
The wind was strong, they felt the 
drops of rain on their faces...
The whole house went inside to rest
Yes!! It was an eventful day
He went to his room, his mind filled 
with the love of God...he had no 
doubt about God's love, his heart 
did not waver , neither did he give 
in to fear..
He danced like never before like a 
drunk man being electrocuted .. 
that's exactly what he was feeling..
He realized he could do this till morning ..
He quenched the vibe and controlled 
himself
He slept like a baby
Even in the midst of that storm
Peace engulfed him like a river
