ADVENT: PEACE

 

For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counsellor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace

Isaiah 9:6

 
 

Imprint Of Peace

 

Marks of a gift
scribed long ago,
colours and textures
that overwhelm
our finitude
with glorious abundance.

Fragrance of a sense
beautifully wafting
across time
and space,
illuminating darkness
and quieting our fears.

Footsteps of wholeness
that walk to our door 
across boundaries
and divisions –
fractures restored
by the imprint of peace.

The Imprint of Peace - There are no limits to the wholeness he brings.
