The Full Stature of Christ

A Meditation for the Nativity by Fr Gregory

The Creator assumes the sacred mantle of flesh

entire and whole

the perfection of our longings

and yet not without its frailty

entering wholly into dark abyss

from which inextinguishable Light will burn.

Such a moment is caught in the adoration of Love

yet not contained

for, lying always just beyond our grasp

to urge our embrace onward

towards the Infinite, the Eternal

where within He shall be all in all

in Love.

And dare we approach to worship this Child-Creator

this burning Love of trembling height and depth?

A body and soul cleansed is fit to bear this Light, this Heat

and in Love shall all that there is be made whole

if we would but come

now.
