Wilderness
Poem – Neryl McCallum
Mark 1:9-15
Here,
in this demanding place,
accompanied by wild things,
and nourished by nature,
considerations are made clear.
Here,
the echo
of your boldly claimed words
‘You are my beloved’,
reside with me these forty days,
and I know these words
are not just for me,
but are for all things
and are the good news
that I will proclaim.
