(Numbers 23:22; 24:8, Job 39:9-10; Psalms 29:6, 92:10 KJV)
If you ever want a little fun
ask someone
who thinks the King James Bible
is the only one for the meek and humble.
This question -
“Do you believe in unicorns?”
He’ll probably retort
that you’re probably low a quart.
“Unicorns are just scribbles
in little girls’ journals.”
“Oh,” I said
“I think unicorns were one of God’s favorites.
Maybe even the Holy Spirit’s!”
He was incensed
because blasphemy he was against.
He slammed his Bible on the table,
“OK , show me in here, if you’re able.
I opened up to Psalm 92
and read verse ten :
"But my horn shalt thou exalt like the horn of an unicorn:
I shall be anointed with fresh oil."
He didn’t share my mirth
“You know that poets use images
that do not exist on this earth.
How about a more credible message?
I ‘ll settle for Jesus
or even the prophet Amos.”
I opened up to Job 39:9-10
“Will God do, my friend?”
[God said to Job:]
9 Will the unicorn be willing to serve thee, or abide by thy crib?
10 Canst thou bind the unicorn with his band in the furrow?
or will he harrow the valleys after thee?
“ Do you believe in them?” he mumbled.
“I would, but they’re not in my Bible,” I replied.
He answered:
“Maybe you should,
Since they were one of God’s favorites.
Maybe even the Holy Spirit’s!”
