The day has been breathless, Lord
I stop now for a few moments and I wonder,
Is the signature of the holy over the rush of the day?
Or have I bolted ahead, anxiously trying
to solve problems that do not belong to me?
Holy Spirit of God, please show me;
How to work relaxed
How to make each task an offering of faith
How to view interruptions as doors to service
How to see each person as my teacher in things eternal
In the name of Him who always unhurried
Amen
“A Prayer At Mid Day”
