A Prayer for Saturday, September 8, 2012

Alone

O God,

Thank you for those times when we are alone because we want to be alone, because in such times we can reflect on who you are and who we are so that we can be more ourselves when we are with others.

Help us in those times when we are alone even though we don’t want to be alone, because in such times we can feel so lonely and afraid and vulnerable.

Remind us when we are alone, whether our aloneness is sought by us or is thrust upon us and whether it feels like a helpful or a hurtful experience, that we are never really alone; keep us aware that you are there.

Amen.
