Christmas Day: The Word became flesh
8:00 AM"Dawn, Pockstones" by LizzieShepherd on Flickr |
And the Word became flesh and lived among us,
and we have seen his glory, the glory as of a father's only son,
full of grace and truth. -John 1:14
The Word/Echoes (an excerpt)
by David Bolton
The Spirit o’er deep darkness broods
Waiting to birth forth the sun
Earth and sky and all that moves
Expressions of the Speaking One
Ancient echoes now commence
Resoundings of an unheard Word
Prophets each their message send
Sublime whispers to be heard
Prophet Sun and Prophet Moon
Prophet Ocean, Sky and Land
Prophet Eagle, Ox and Lion
Crowning all, Prophet Man
Over vale and mountain peak
Far as eye and mind traverse
All creation hears their speech
The Word-incarnate universe
- - -
The Word created, and became
And He is becoming still
Flesh embodying the Name
The glory of the Father’s Will
