A Prayer for Tuesday, August 26, 2014

Deep

O God,

Sometimes—too much of the time—our lives are a mile wide and an inch deep.

We are so busy and so harried and so distracted that we can’t—or at least don’t—take the time and make the effort to be still, to put our roots down deep, and to let ourselves be loved by you.

Show us where we can simplify our lives, where we can cut back on our activities, and how we can be still enough to know that we are known and loved by you.

Help us to move toward having lives that are a little less wide and a whole lot deeper.

Amen.
