Haiku of promise
Ahaz will not ask
the Lord for a sign. A sign
will still be given.
A girl will conceive,
she shall give birth to a son
called Immanuel.
Teenage girl, swelling
with wonder and life; marker
of life, joy and hope.
Children speak to us
of blessings, spirit, beauty,
duty and promise.
This child is unique,
turning away from evil
and choosing the good.
We ask for a sign
but it is there before us.
Rise up and seek God!
