May December be the month we learn to wait in the dark.
May the darkness be like the muffled warmth of a womb.
May we hear the mothering heartbeat of God echo around us.
And may we know ourselves to be safe, protected, and held.
May we grow in the dark waters without fear of the coming pressure and pangs of birth.
God is doing a new thing.
May we perceive it in the dark so we may live it in the coming light.
