Prayer for Junwe 14, 2022

Help O God when we are overwhelmed or exhausted to recognize that almost nothing is so imminent that one can’t step back and regain the energy and focus that will help you better complete the task or simply live one’s life. We are often pressured by our own expectations or pride to continue to push through challenging times hoping that we will somehow get the runners high that we had long pushed past. May we listen to our friends, family and bodies when we hit those stages and know that you designed us to take rest, and to set aside time for reflection. Help us to know that you will make all things well and that we can take a break when needed. All this we ask in the name of the God who wants us whole and our joy complete. Amen
