Let us be present to the now.
It's all we have
and it's where God will always speak to us.
The now holds everything, rejects nothing and,
therefore, can receive God, too.
Help us be present to the place
we're most afraid of,
because it always feels empty,
it always feels boring,
it always feels like it's not enough.
Help us find some space within
that we don't try to fill with ideas or opinions.
Help us find space so you, loving God,
can show yourself in that place
where we are hungry and empty.
Keep us out of the way,
so there is always room enough for you.
Amen.
