A Prayer for Thursday, January 22, 2015

Pause

O God,

Let the living of life give us pause;

help us to become so aware of the mysteries and wonders of life and to become so attuned to the rhythms and vagaries of life that we consistently pause to ponder, to absorb, and to respond to all that is going on around us.

Let us live moment by moment with so much awareness, attentiveness, and sensitivity that it doesn’t take a terrible tragedy or a spectacular event to give us pause; help us constantly to live life as the ongoing remarkable experience that it is.

And when life gives us pause, help us to experience you in all of it and remind us to give you praise for all of it …

Amen.
