Matthew, the hated tax collector, in league with the
Occupying Romans, writes his Gospel for the Jews.
Paul, the Pharisee of Pharisees, apostle to the Gentiles.
God doesn’t allocate resources the way I would expect.
I would prefer efficiency, a straight line.
But perhaps I should take comfort that the record shows
Anything but, preferring relationship, lives poured out,
Time, forbearance, surprise.
