God of all space and time,
You are able to be in all places and at all times.
Sometimes, I think You forget that I am not.
I feel the tug of the work to which You have called me.
I yearn for more time in the relationships in which You have involved me.
I crave rest. I long for You.
Help me to be at peace with where I am from moment to moment.
Guide me through the Spirit to see the "extra" time in my day.
Slow my feet and speed my comprehension... that I might be more aware of the ways You are moving.
Help me to become receptive to the gift of Your peace.
I know, dear God, that is a horribly passive prayer.
But passivity is my prayer to You.
You are the actor, the First Mover, the Giver, and the Invitation.
Help me to respond, even with stillness.
Amen.
