Yet Love...

When is the time for love to be born?
The inn is full on the planet earth,
And by a comet the sky is torn-
Yet Love still takes the risk of Birth.

Madeleine L'Engle

The words from the poem above have been sticking in my mind today "Love still takes the risk of birth." During a time of year when we shelter warmly together with family and friends, the risk that God took for us seems to be a polar opposite.

All is calm and bright here. My suitcases are almost packed and I head out on the road tomorrow for time with family. I'll be away from wifi (unless I sneak over to Panerra to catch up on my email) so don't expect posts for a few days.

Have a blessed Christmas!
