Christmas promise

Truth, first displayed as a Son beloved,
blest impartation of the Father,
today shines forth as Science—
hope fulfilled,
God’s laws revealed,
the Christ-idea appearing again 
to illumine what the Master proved, 
man and woman forever complete
in the image of Spirit.

It comes again, this light divine,
to every open heart,
the promise of the star fulfilled each day—
“I will not leave you comfortless.” *

—David C. Kennedy

*John 14:18
