Drawn to the manger
There are infinite ways to pray—to yield,
To deepen our consciousness of God.
So often I’m led
To the purity of the manger—the manger of humility and love,
Where every knee and every heart bows to the Christ,
Where a higher law of justice prevails.
There’s such a natural attraction to this place . . .
This gathering . . .
Not only did it draw Mary and Joseph, looking for a place to rest,
But other listening hearts—
The lowly shepherds . . .
And wise men bearing gifts.
All of us are called to this place
Of life . . . transcending time and space.
It’s inevitable, this gathering—the natural activity of the Christ—
Where the carnal mind cannot enter.
In fact, the carnal mind cannot even conceive of such a place.
And in this meek and joyful manger, the babe of Christian healing . . .
Appears.
