BENEDICTION


It is not over, this birthing.
There are always newer skies into which God can throw stars.
When we think that we can predict the Advent of God,
that we can box the Christ in a stable in Bethlehem,
that's just the time that God will be born
in a place we can't imagine and won't believe.
Those who wait for God watch
with their hearts and not their eyes,
listening, always listening.

- Ann Weems, Kneeling in Bethlehem
