KNEELING IN BETHLEHEM

KNEELING IN BETHLEHEM
WITH YESTERDAY’S PAIN
Some of us walk into Advent
Tethered to our unresolved yesterdays
The pain still stabbing
The hurt still throbbing.
It’s not that we don’t know better;
It’s just that we can’t stand up anymore by ourselves.
On the way to Bethlehem,
Will you give us a hand?
…Ann Weems
