Thursday Pause

 


Breathe in God’s love…breathe out love for the Author and Source of love.

Breathe in God’s love…breathe out love for those whose presence warm your heart.

Breathe in God’s love…breathe out a prayer of care and concern for those you struggle to love.

 

Be in this moment and pray with me.

 

Holy One, when the Valentine’s Day candy is on clearance and the Easter jelly beans have not yet been stocked on the shelves, we have space to pause and breathe and be in Your presence.  Help us continue to listen to the stories we tell ourselves.  Help us not just speak, but hear the words that fall from our lips when talking to others.  Help us not just talk, but tend to the narratives that all compete for space in our mind.  Loosen our grip on the pen of life that You might enter in with a grace and love that can re-write our story with a love that will never let us go.  In the name of the One who not only taught, but lived the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus the Christ. Amen.
