an ode to mass

James and I went to Mass
but neither of us is Catholic
so we knew nothing of what to expect
but, both of us being Christian, we knew what Communion was
and we could make it through that
as we walked thru the pews, I was amazed at the how grand and gothic everything was compared to all the churches I had attended
I listened to the Word of God
I ate His son's flesh
I drank His son's blood
and we sang the closing hymn
as I exited the doors of the House of the Lord
I felt as though I had just been rained on
and as I looked at James, I could tell he felt the same
it's funny how a little worship can change a man
