Pause for Prayer: TUESDAY 5/16

Another new day lies before me, Lord:
a day you’ve have made, your gift to me
to spend with care, and generously,
with all I meet today…

Lord, open my heart to this day’s grace
and help me face temptation…

Open my mind to gracious thoughts
of you, my neighbor, myself…

Open my arms to help and serve
the needs of friends and family…

Open my eyes to see your hand
 in the beauty all around me…

Open my ears to hear you speak
your word, your truth, your Spirit…

          Open me wide to the gentle touch 
          of your healing and your mercy…
          Open me up to all that ‘s good,

          worthy, just and pure…
          Open my imagination, Lord, 
          to all you have in store for me…
          Open my will to do what you ask:
          help me live one day at a time…
Open my heart to this new day, Lord,
your gift to me, a day that’s mine
to grow in grace and wisdom
and in peace with one and all…

Amen.
