Facing the Darkness

Facing the Darkness

On a bleak and melancholy winter day

gloomy dark and icy cold outside 

feeling fragile, weary - missing John

I pick up Ann Weems’ Kneeling in Bethlehem

and am reminded once again to 

face the darkness

Not to run and hide but turn and

grapple with blind emptiness, for 

in the shadows one can better

See the Light

Christ Jesus

Light of the World

Light of the Word

Word of Light in

A world so dark
