Prayer for Today, Friday, February 3

O Creator of Beauty,

Today, O Lord, we will seek to see Your hand at work all around us. Today, Beneficent God, we will find  time to pause and appreciate creation. Today, Gregarious God, we will be sensitive to your presence in the depth and breadth of our relationships. Please forgive us when we take life for granted. Please embrace us, even when we feel we don't have time for You. May Your spirit empower us to be receptive and appreciative of your Eternal Presence with us. This is our prayer in Jesus’ name. AMEN
