Waiting in Silence Third Week of Advent
Advent Week #3 Joy Candle
Waiting in Silence
He Calls to me
Come Away
In Quiet
Silence is rare and rich
Our daily commodity is noise
Distraction, chattering
Clanging, Media, Busyness.
This silence Pregnant with Presence
The image of Mary waiting
As we wait in the Advent glow
As women for eons have waited
Knowing that inside them
Lives the first flutter of a child
United with the pink in the Joy candle
What wonder, What How could this be
Astonishment!
The angel was not a dream
Yet she had, Not known a man
Her Yes permission, for an Eternal plan
Yet Daily
Each of us are called to be
As Mary
Aware, waiting for the flutter
Knowing His Presence
Waiting in Anticipation
To Hear his Voice
To See His Face
Waiting in Silence
Pregnant with Presence.
John 1 -10-14
He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. Yet to all who received him, to those who believed his name, he gave the right to become children of God- children not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God, The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father full of grace and truth.
