Friday 9 December

Isaiah 48: 17-19, Ps. 1,
Matthew 11: 16-19

Mary, Instrument

Mary, heavenly instrument
with which Yahweh plays a tune.
Tune, to which we are invited to dance
that may cause us to laugh or cry.
Tune that I maybe learn the songs of daily burdens by the resistance
I put against them. I need a gentle heart
Tune to live our lives by.

Mary, compassionate one,
share with me your gift from Yahweh
that I may respond to his music
dancing or crying to his of the kingdom of Heaven.
