The prayer

A prayer to pray now

Lord Jesus, Your Word tells me to grow in what is good and true. That sounds big, but I think it means practice. Help me practice being kind. Help me practice telling the truth. Help me practice paying attention. I am little, but I can practice. Walk me through one practice today. Maybe being patient when someone is slow. Maybe finishing my reading. Build me up one piece. I do not need to be a whole grown-up by tonight. Just one step of practice is enough. Amen.
