Among all the distractions
whirling within me and around me,
help me stop today, to pause, to pray
to be mindful of you, Lord...
Help me be mindful
of how you attend to me,
ever watchful in your vigil,
through the day and through the night...
Make me mindful, Lord,
of all you whisper in my heart:
words of grace to guard and guide me,
to keep me from harm's way...
Keep me mindful of your Spirit,
moving, breathing in my soul,
calling me and leading me
to walk the path you chart...
Make me mindful, Lord, of any
whose paths cross mine today:
help me tend my neighbor's needs
with an open, generous heart...
Clear my mind of its distractions
and my heart of fear and worry:
make a quiet place within me, Lord,
where you and I can meet...
Keep me mindful, Lord, of you
when I just sit still and pray:
in the silence of your presence
let me find you by my side...
Amen.
