The prayer

A prayer to pray now

Father, I have been treating the Holy Spirit like He only shows up for big days, not for my ordinary Tuesday. Correct me. The same Spirit You gave those first believers is the One You gave me. Help me welcome Him into the plain parts of my day. Not by trying to make something happen. By honest welcome. He is here already. Help me notice and cooperate.

Amen.
