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]
