A portion of Jan Richardson’s poem “Blessed are you who bear the light…”
Blessed are you
in whom
the light lives,
in whom
the brightness blazes—
your heart
a chapel,
an altar where
in the deepest night
can be seen
the fire that
shines forth in you
in unaccountable faith,
in stubborn hope,
in love that illumines
every broken thing
it finds.
From Circle of Grace: A Book of Blessings for the Seasons by Jan
Richardson, pages 47-48.
