Advent Hope

Grounding In...

God I know I don’t need
To look for you

Advent is in
a minor key

Because

Christ is already here
In the ICE prisons

Christ is already here
with the unhoused

Christ is already here
at the wartorn rubble

Christ is already here

But it’s hard
to see the face of Jesus

Fear not
You say

And you coax us to
free the prisoners

To distribute food
without worry about who is deserving

As you remind us
What peace and wholeness means

Fear not
The Holy Spirit
Inspires us

Laying Groundwork
for the key change
to take hold

We wait with you God
Because we want the miracle
of Christmas

To be about
the seeds that are
planted
to mean
Universal flourishings
