"And the Word Was Made Flesh"
obviously drawn from the first chapter of John's gospel. "AND THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH" Light looked down and beheld Darkness. "Thither will I go," said Light. Peace looked down and beheld War. "Thither will I go," said Peace. Love looked down and beheld Hatred. "Thither will I go," said Love. So came Light and shone. So came Peace and gave rest. So came Love and brought Life. - Laurence Housman, 1865-1959, as collected in MASTERPIECES OF RELIGIOUS VERSE, Harper & Brothers Publishers, 1948. [May the Christ who is Light, Peace and Love be very real to each of you in the new year. In him may you find both rest and abundance of life.] Have a great week, Chip Stam Pastor of Worship and Music Chapel Hill Bible Church Chapel Hill, North Carolina |
