FROM THE SHADOWS
A POEM OF INVITATION

So many of us
Live in worlds
Beyond reach in places
Of shadow
That we have become
Like the creatures
That live at the bottom of the sea-
Dwelling in darkness
And misshapen.
But He Who Is Light
Sees you down there.
He calls out to you
In your darkness.
He invites you
To come to beauty,
To leave the deep place
Of cold silence,
And join Him
In the sun swept meadows,
Watched over
By Him the Good Shepherd.



"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." Matthew 11:28.
