The prayer
A prayer to pray now
Father, Luke 23 tells us the cross happened at a real place called Calvary. A real hill. Not an idea. A place You chose.
You always meet me in real places, too. Not just the thought of grace. The quiet five minutes in this chair. Not just the idea of being with me. The light through the window right now.
Keep me from turning holy things into words that float away. The cross was made of wood and nails, and a real hill. Forgiveness was given at a real moment in time.
Today is a real day, in a real kitchen. Meet me here, where my feet are. Not in some better future kitchen. Here.
I receive Your grace in the place I am standing. That is enough.
Amen.
