Mindfulness Association

I cannot tell you

how the light comes.

What I know

is that it is more ancient

than imagining.

That it travels

across an astounding expanse

to reach us.

That it loves

searching out

what is hidden

what is lost

what is forgotten

or in peril

or in pain.

That it has a fondness

for the body

for finding its way

toward flesh

for tracing the edges

of form

for shining forth

through the eye,

the hand,

the heart.

I cannot tell you

how the light comes,

but that it does.

That it will.

That it works its way

into the deepest dark

that enfolds you,

though it may seem

long ages in coming

or arrive in a shape

you did not foresee.

And so

may we this day

turn ourselves toward it.

May we lift our faces

to let it find us.

May we bend our bodies

to follow the arc it makes.

May we open

and open more

and open still

to the blessed light

that comes.

by Jan Richardson

A fitting poem for this dark time of the year here in the northern hemisphere, by the artist, writer, and ordained minister in the United Methodist Church Jan Richardson. As I look out into the dark and cold evening, I have a clear sense of why light has been such a powerful metaphor through the ages and across cultures, especially in parts of the world where there is a period in the year with not much of it. And so, particularly if 2021 has been a year you have experienced as a difficult one, I wish you much lightness and brightness in the one to come. And I’m curious about what possibilities and opportunities each of us have of ‘turning ourselves towards’ the light, of ‘lifting our faces to let it find us’ and opening more and more to it. And then to recognise those opportunities, and act on them…

PS And if you feel the possibility of practising together with others may help, there are a lot of opportunities for that! And if finances have been an obstacle in accessing the course you’d like to join, there’s a warm welcome to pay what you can. For more info see here!

How the Light Comes – Joslyn Poems

Happy New Year! Even though the daylight hours are increasing at this time of year, there is still more dark than light. Sometimes all this darkness affects our moods and motivation to do anything. This poem by Jan Richardson spoke to me about the light that is on its way, but also how we can think about its coming in its many forms. I hope the writing prompts at the end will give you a chance to reflect on the many ways light comes into your lives.

That it has a fondness

What is a light in your life and how do you access it?

Shine a light on something hidden, lost or forgotten, and write about what you find.

How has light sought you out and awakened you to something new?

Sunday Inspiration: How the Light Comes

While this lovely poem is a blessing meant for Christmas day, I think it’s wonderfully appropriate for the new year, too, and throughout the year. A friend posted it on Facebook and I loved it immediately.

May the new year bring light to each of us and to our world.

How the Light Comes

The 21st December is the winter solstice, the day with the shortest period of daylight and the longest night of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. For centuries it has been a special day for peoples and cultures worldwide. As Christmas Day approaches perhaps we are settling inward, and at the same time looking outward, awaiting the coming of Jesus among us – ‘Light for our lives and for the World’.

This poem was written by Jan Richardson a few years ago with Christmas in mind, as a Blessing for Christmas Day. I think it may be just right too, to express our looking towards, and looking forward to the arrival of the Light at this Solstice time.

As Jan says:

“…a simple blessing and a prayer: that we may tell the story, that we may testify to the light, that the Word may take flesh in us this day and in all the days to come”.

Reading from the Gospels, Christmas Day, Years ABC: John 1.1-14

I love how John tells it. His version of the Christmas story is absent of anything we can put into a manger scene—no baby Jesus, no Mary who dared to say yes to an archangel, no Joseph who risked believing in his dreams and allied himself with Mary and her child. No shepherds. No angels. No far-traveling, gift-bearing Magi wafting in on the fragrances of frankincense and myrrh.

John pares away the Christmas story to its essence: The Word. Light. Life. Dwelling among us. In the flesh.

Glory and grace and truth.

In his telling, John the Evangelist invokes John the Baptist, Jesus’ way-making cousin who haunts the season of Advent. Himself a pared-down figure—the wilderness having worn away anything that would have hindered him from his call—John the Baptist is utterly at home in John the Evangelist’s telling of the story that enchants with its poetic simplicity and beauty. The Baptist knows about the basics, knows about getting to the heart of things, knows what it means to divest ourselves of anything that hinders us from preparing a way for the Word and proclaiming its presence in our midst.

And so for this day, in the Spirit of John the Evangelist and John the Baptist, a simple blessing and a prayer: that we may tell the story, that we may testify to the light, that the Word may take flesh in us this day and in all the days to come.
