A prayer to pray now
Father, the school year is almost over, and the days feel different. You are the One who names the days. This day is not mine to waste on whatever feels fun. Help me take it as Yours. There is a test I am stressing over, and dinner with my family, where I need to actually pay attention Walk me through each part. Help me show up. Help me be here. Help me stop asking what I get out of today. Make me someone who gives a little to this day instead of just taking from it all, even if no one else sees. Amen.
