Hello all
Here's a few lines I put together in reflecting on John's gospel for a
Bible study and where the nativity is expressed concisely in 1:14.
No broken waters that presage a birth,
Or of the mother’s pain, and blood, no sight;
Just that the Word took flesh and lived on earth,
Fullness of truthful grace, of life and light.
Yet at the cross, water and blood are seen,
Signs of the Lamb removing human sin
And living water from the Nazarene,
Received by faith, creating life within.
W John Young December 2020.
grace and peace
John Y
