A Day to Listen

While we keep our lives busy

with so many things other than you,

yet, Lord, you came to dwell among us;

 

While we seem so far from you

with so much to take us away from you

yet, Lord you come to dwell among us;

 

While we are forever on the phone,

or listening to the radio or watching TV,

Yet, Lord, you came to talk with us;

 

Lord, in the midst of all that’s going on

help me to listen to your voice,

and to share with you this Christmas. Amen.
