A Prayer for Monday, April 22, 2013

Twenty-Third Day of Easter

We praise you, O God, that in the resurrection of Jesus Christ the eternal invaded the temporal and that in our being raised in him to walk in newness of life the eternal continues to invade the temporal.

Help us to make the most of the time, O God, for the opportunity to live a time-bound life while we are at the same time unbound by time and to live a death-haunted life while we are at the same time unhaunted by death is a challenging blessing.

Give us grace to live these lives for all they are worth, knowing that they are worth so much more because of the resurrection.

Amen.
