 REFLECTION FOR DECEMBER 2012

AT CHRISTMAS

You are not mistaken
it’s bells you hear.
The Bells of Christmas
sounding over
the bankers and brokers,
the bewildered and the beautiful,
the brightest and the betrayed,
the bingers and the bosses,
the bruised and the broken,
the bitter and the bejewelled,
for
in a world
of change
they still ring out
their Song of Hope,
even in the shattered places
where violence reigns
and blood flows freely.
For they are
The Bells of God –
touching the hidden places
in all our lives
and
inviting us home.
So pause
and listen,
for The Bells of Christmas
are for you.


(Please feel free to share the poem. Thinking of you. Peter.)
