Pause for Prayer: SUNDAY 11/8

 

 

Lord,

your Spirit is with me 24/7/365,
    pushing and pulling me,
    prompting and prodding me,
    nudging me always
    to love what's good,
    to do what's just,
    to speak the truth,
    to do the next right thing,
    to help my neighbor,
    to choose wisely,
    to lift my heart to you in prayer
    and to walk humbly

        by your side...

But so often, too often, Lord,
    I'm deaf to your voice,
    blind to your presence, 

    too busy, too lazy,
    too foolish, too self-absorbed
    to see, to hear, to notice
    all the ways your Spirit moves
        in me, around me and through me...

Today, Lord,
    open my ears and my eyes,
    my mind and my imagination,
    and my heart's and my soul's desires
        - all to your Spirit -
    living and breathing within me
        and through the whole of creation...

Amen.
