A prayer to pray now

Father, You say You have loved me with an everlasting love. That word is the one I need. Everlasting. Not since the day I first believed. From before the beginning. The love that holds me on this small Tuesday morning is older than the universe. Let me sit with that word a moment longer. Everlasting. Not changed by my moods. Not changed by how well I do. Not even changed by my forgetting. Your love does not flicker. The flickering is in me. Your love is steady. Walk me into this day under it. Amen.
