The star went before them.
Until it came to rest over the place where the child was.
They did not know the path before them.
And who, what was the child.

Have we enough faith.
To follow our star.
How resilient is our faith.
And what is our star.

We have to make that leap.
For nothing is certain.
But hope we can  keep.
As we look beyond the physical curtain.

Our star somewhere is there.
So have no fear.

…….

The star went before them
Came to rest over child
Their faith followed it

See Matthew 2: 1-12

In the beginning was the word.
And the word was with God.
And the word was God.
And now we read the word.

The word is the logos in Greek.
What is logical and what is the divine order.
It is what  ultimately we seek.
The rational structure of a universe in order.

In the beginning was God.
All things were made by him.
And here now and for ever is God.
All things were made through him.

John bore witness about the light.
But he was not the light, Jesus is the light.

….

The beginning word
The logos of universe
And the word is God

See John 1: 1-18

 

 

 

 

 

The reason why the World does not know us.
Is that it did not know him.
Perhaps we have missed the divine bus.
But he knows our every vacillating whim.

We have to let go.
Know this doesn’t matter.
Whether we are high or low.
Our ashes are just going to scatter.

We can concentrate on him.
Or we can be obsessed with us.
He really knows our every whim.
We can join the waiting spiritual bus.

We can fall it his arms.
And take up our spiritual arms.

….

We have to let go
And just fall into his arms
For he is waiting

….

See 1 John 2

No one who denies the son has the father.
Whoever confesses the son has the father also.
We find the son through the father.
We know the father through the son also.

Fears and worries during the night.
But in the church the mind clears.
It was as if I was invaded by light.
The mists of doubt recede with fears.

The long dark night of winter.
The hours slowly slipping by.
The mind a dreary printer.
But in the church the tears dry.

In praying, calming solitude.
The mind empties and lifts the mood.

……

In calm solitude
Praying in the empty church
The mind empties, peace

….

See 1 John 2 : 22-28

And the Shepherds returned.
Glorifying and praising.
Have we from this life turned.
Are we here, for the end, merely waiting.

I was pondering, thinking.
Who are we really, what is our essence.
We are so tied up in our ego , just existing.
But what will come into the divine presence.

It is not this body, our life’s role.
Nor any possession.
Only the undefinable soul.
Will survive and is the essential lesson.

So we chase our essence.
Yet it eludes us, it is only a sense.

……

What is our essence
Is it body or our soul
What’s essential

See Luke 2: 16-21
