Poem

Vigilance

From the August 2025 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.
I Thessalonians 5:5, 6

There is danger in limiting the 
limitless and everlasting God, 
in murmuring over mediocrity,
surrendering to the lie that disaster
is inevitable or grief eternal,
or forfeiting our responsibility
to one another.
