Nicodemus page 4 by ric Gustafson
The rig stopped at the descent to the port city. We got out and stood next to the burly fisherman.
" We are going to bless you, pray for you and wish you Godspeed". Peter looked at Paul. " Then I have some news for you".
James, Barnabas, Peter and an unnamed brother laid their hands on Paul and began to pray. " Father, bless our friend and your servant with safety, health and courage".
" Peter, what news did you have for me?".
Peter gave Paul a concerned stare. " Nicodemus has been murdered".
" How!" Barnabas exclaimed as his knees nearly gave out. " By whom?".
" It happened between the Temple and his home".
" Why?" James exclaimed.
" Hard to say" was Peter's reply. " He was a courageous man to return to the Sanhedrin after the crucifixion".
The burly fisherman put a hand on Paul's shoulder. " God be with you".
