A Poem for Christmas 2025

There is a peace you will not find
In one more moment, scrolling
There is a comfort more divine
Than powers grasped, controlling

There is a Love that heals all wounds
Of human loves short-falling
There is a voice that draws us nearer
Than other hungers calling

There is a strength in tiny babe
God in His weakness, arrival
Here is a hope our life can mean
Much more than just survival

For those so overwhelmed by noise
One silent stillness beckons
For those in lonesome silence now
Hungering for connection

His is the presence, calling us
If we will pause to listen
Beyond the noises that distract
And ads for that which glistens

His Love invites our lives to join
Redemption now arriving
To follow as His Spirit leads
To Kingdom ways, abiding

Embracing as we’ve been embraced
Forgiving as forgiven
To know this infant we celebrate
Was to the cross, Love-driven

Allow His Love to enter in
Before a hindrance may start
Let us set aside our pace
And listen to His heart…

1 John 4:16-19
“So we have known and believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and those who abide in love abide in God, and God abides in them. Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness on the day of judgment, because as he is, so are we in this world. There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear; for fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not reached perfection in love. We love because he first loved us.”
