Advent Devotion for December 9

Turnaround God
by Robin E. Van Cleef

God has a way of turning things around,
calling green shoot from dead stump,
investing the common with a sense of royalty
sending the spirit,
fists crammed with love and justice,
wisdom and might,
to transform lives.
Come, turnaround God,
touch my divided self,
drawing together the polarities:
leopard and lamb
lion and calf
subject to the implicit child within.
