The prayer
A prayer to pray now
Father, You told Your people not to spread stories that hurt. I know that kind of gossip is not just words out loud. It lives in my head. I replay the hard thing my in-laws said. I notice the small story about another mom at playgroup. I judge the friend who has not called. Quiet that voice in my mind. I do not need to keep telling that story, not even to myself. The kinder thought is also true. Help me hold on to that one instead. Amen.
