Prayer Offered for May 30, 2023

Gracious God, silenced, hands and heart open, I pray:

Brush away what keeps me stuck, dulled

By figuring, not listening to Your presence, Your words.

“What [am I] looking for? [What am I] expecting to see?”

Like the banks of a river

I need to wait, ready to receive sacred life

And ready to let go….

Tuned to Your rhythms, O God,

Give us eyes to see the shadows

Where holiness lies invisible

In questions and uncertainties without answers.

We dwell in mystery,

Connection, communion, Your heartbeat everywhere.—AMEN.
