THE FIRST STONE I LET DOWN

T'was on the 11th of July

In a big hall filled with large crowd

Hours had long passed like the time they were

And late i was as i found myself in the audience listening to the discussion session

As this tall dark dude in front of me on the next row requested for a microphone

And all we thought was that he was gonna ask a question or better make a tangible contribution

Though he did but he began his introit in an ugly confession

He grabbed the microphone

But that was after he had buried the reactions of the crowd in a casket of complete confidence

He stood like an undaunted warriorHis face shone with nothing but the brightness of boldness

As he began to empty his filled bowl of iniquity before the peopleI steadfastly watched him as an audience of one

Feeling like i was the only one who watched him spit those words of confessionI admired his audacious spirit

And i could see beyond his words

As i saw a bleeding heart the moment i gazed upon his soul

But the n i starred at him with the eyes of a pharisee

As i spiritually paddled my anger closer to himI had already picked up a stone waiting to sling it through his skull just like David did to great Goliath

I know i wasn't the only one with a spiritual stone in my hands though

But on the Virge of my hands saying AMEN to this actionI heard a whisper of john 8:17b

And this whisper erased my wrath just like water quenches thirst in a desert throatAs i unconsciously let go of the stone

And walked away with face bent to earthI saddled back my soul to my body

And i realised i had no right to judge when the JUDGE Himslef had given no verdict but instead had set freeI knew i was also a culpri

tAnd for the fact that i never publicly confessed mine made me no differentI watched as he was stripped of the sin and punishment he was worthy of

And clothed with a garment as of snow"Go and sin no more"were the words that put smile on his face as he laid his iniquities on the Master's feet

Postscript- Often times we judge too quickly,we unhesitantly point fingers on others without having detailed inspection on ourselves to see if we're equally guilty of what we're publicly against. We disguise ourselves to be public saints(hypocrites) but surreptitious hellish citizens ,before you cast the spell off others,first of all conduct deliverance on yourself and be sure you're cleansed and purified enough,if not put yourself on a quarantine) _iamscripted
