A Prayer for Monday, October 14, 2013

This Moment

O God,

As we live in this week and in all our weeks, keep us constantly aware that it is this moment—the moment in which we find ourselves—that matters most.

Our past moments are important; they constitute our life and we have learned valuable lessons from them. But we are not living in them and we should not try.

Our future moments are important; they constitute our destiny and can thus create in us both hope and dread. But we are not living in them and we should not try.

So plant us deeply in this moment; help us to give all of our attention and all of our energy to what and/or who we are experiencing right here and right now.

This moment is all we know we have; help us to live it for all it’s worth.

Amen.
