That is part of your Calling
Being the shock-jock Apostle
Teaching the world Jesus real messages:
That we come to God as ourselves
No matter where we are, stay who we are
Keepers who are always changing everything
Not allowed to become stagnant ourselves
We bring others to God by law of attraction
Intended to live as vividly as we can
Always being proactive for our fellows

How hard is that?
How many times have you been slapped by Life
The white lightning in your eyes
A reminder that you should pay attention

How hard was it for Jesus?
He practiced His belief that we should go
Into the world, be in the people, any people
Touching them in many ways, knowing
That this means they will also touch us
Changing each other forever

How did that turn-out for Him?
He stayed Himself--that's the greatest miracle
Before and after, He said the same:
Not that we should go out and be judges and martyrs
But that we should be witnesses
That we should pay attention

And be the Keepers of the good
Rememberers of what's important
Continue to help change the world

That's when I realized
That I knew who you were
'Reverend' Michael McGee

Reverently:
You are the one that holds them

You hold their names in your heart
Hold their importance in your head
Hold the words in your mouth
That you add to the soundtrack of Existence

For you hold the music of their souls in your ears
That forms the song that we dance to
As we step, trying to keep up with you

Beautiful tribute to Rev. McGee. I went and watched a couple of his YouTube videos and I think you have done him justice.

Love,
