Prayer for the Day . . .

Gracious God,

thank you for the gift of today.

Refresh me . . . Invite me . . .

to discover Your Presence in each person

that I meet, and every event encountered.

Teach me when to speak and when to listen,

when to ponder and when to share.

In moments of challenge and decision attune my

heart to the whisperings of Your Wisdom.

As I undertake ordinary and unnoticed tasks,

gift me with simple Joy.

When my day goes well, may I rejoice!

When it grows difficult

surprise me with new possibilities.

When life is overwhelming

call me to Sabbath moments

to restore Your Peace and Harmony.

May my living today

reveal your goodness.

Amen.
