Poem for John 7:37-39 The Day of Pentecost

we are guided by the light

the light of Christ

the light of love

the love of God

be still and know

be still and hear

be still and let the spirit work in you

in me

be still and let the Love of God

more than dwell

            but live

be still

and know of the love that created the word

and suffered to give

            life

be still and know of the love of God

            in the silence of the night

            the noise of the children

            the beauty of the sunset

            the hand of the neighbor

be still and know

the love of God will find a way to break in

and the God of Creation will love
