Every Wednesday, we invite you to pause and pray with us. Today’s Pause & Pray is written and curated by MDiv student Ashley Black.

Pray
God who loves us
May we allow the tugging uncertainties
of today and tomorrow to be held by you.
May our efforts to do all the holding and containing
be replaced by the assurance of your presence among us.
May we be reminded that it is good to be open to receive the gifts you have for us.
And may this kind of abundant love be the current that runs through our veins each day.
Amen.
Meditate
- What am I trying to hold on to or hold up on my own?
- How might God be inviting me to practice being held instead?
