The prayer
A prayer to pray now
Lord Jesus, sweetness has been scarce this week. The days have been gritty. The meals have been fast. The conversations have been short. Let me taste one piece of fruit from You today. The way a hymn comes back while I am washing bottles. The way the sun warms the back of the chair. The way the baby's hand opens against my shoulder. You put each of those in my path on purpose. They are fruit from Your tree. Help me taste them, not just rush past. Amen.
