Pastor Jen is out of the office for much of this week, but she invites you to prepare for Sunday’s worship with the below poem from Steve Garnaas-Holmes.
Nicodemus
I come at night
in the dark
secure in my maturity
but you say be born
I want something to cling to
but the wind, the wind blows
I take a breath, this one breath
life now, for now
and then another, given
All of life is breath
received and released
beginning again
like a birth
through the dark tunnel
received into hands I can’t see
trusting what I can’t grasp
given
beginning again
[John 3.1-19]
