Facing the Ordinary

Reflect

We sometimes feel a lack of spirit in the overwhelming necessity of everyday tasks. May this prayer help you invite God in to all repetitive duties.


Pray

Dear God, I long
to rediscover
your presence 
in the ordinary
in my life.

I often rush
toward the things
I think 
will bring more meaning,
forgetting you are here
even as I rinse the dishes,
or drive the same roads
to work 
yet again.
Guide me toward remembering
I can find you
in the fabric

of all things in my life.


Act

What ordinary tasks can you seek God in today?
