Daily Lectio Divina: TS Eliot

Episode 827

As we approach Advent and the beginning of a new year in the liturgical tradition, we’re continuing a one-week series on Beginning a New Year. Today we’re reading a selection from TS Eliot’s poem, “Little Gidding.”

These things have served their purpose: let them be.
So with your own, and pray they be forgiven
By others, as I pray you to forgive
Both bad and good. Last season’s fruit is eaten
And the fullfed beast shall kick the empty pail.
For last year’s words belong to last year’s language
And next year’s words await another voice.
