Shimmering Fabric – v3

The body of Christ,

the church, universal

a shimmering, living fabric,

precious threads, unique and special,

woven together with love

to show the image of God

to all the world

Shimmering in the darkness,

the faintest light, reflected,

nuanced and changing

living as He did, as we do

in this world; but separate,

set apart, for God’s purposes

being the Son, the Father

Being the hands and feet of God

for all our neighbors

all around the world

sharing the message,

a lamp on a lampstand

a living fabric, shimmering,

dancing in God’s light
