Pause for Prayer: FRIDAY 1/19

Sometimes, Lord, my life seems just
the "same old-same old,"
day in and day out
and over and over again...

I get caught in this cycle,
going nowhere fast, losing sight of hope
and all that tomorrow might hold...

But every day's a new canvas, Lord,
if I pick up my paints and my brushes...

Every day's a blank sheet of paper
waiting for me to write a new chapter...

Every day's a fresh lump of clay
waiting for me to mold and shape and sculpt...

Every day waits for you:
to reveal whatever you'd have me see;
to speak what word you'd have me hear;
to lead me where you'd have me go;
to open my heart to something new,
to the promise of all that's yet to be...

Shake me free of the same old-same old
and waken me, Lord, to the day at hand,
the day you offer, the day you've made,
the day you've given
for me to live anew...

Amen.
