The Bible, now brightened
It’s National Bible Week in the United States, culminating in the International Day of the Bible this Sunday – so here’s a poem highlighting how the light of Christ brings inspiration and meaning to our reading of the Scriptures.
November 23, 2020
In the void
of misunderstanding
a perfect spark
ignites the darkness
of the Scriptures
once obscured
now inspired
Christ-pure light
reveals the Word
shining significance
into the pages
of our lives.
Inspired by p. 169 of “Miscellaneous Writings 1883-1896” by Mary Baker Eddy.
