#PreserveFriendship #community. Today, I #celebratehannah

Holy Trinity, center me now that I may notice Your creative intention, nest in the broad, safe space of Your presence, and intentionally nurture another with the same.

What word or phrase do I notice on which I may center:

Matt 6:19-21 Don’t hoard treasure down here where it gets eaten by moths and corroded by rust or—worse!—stolen by burglars. Stockpile treasure in heaven, where it’s safe from moth and rust and burglars. It’s obvious, isn’t it? The place where your treasure is, is the place you will most want to be, and end up being. [MSG]

Line the nest of God’s presence with this prayer for _______ and myself:

Holy God, thank you, for bringing me into your presence that holds more honor than that of the wealthiest person on earth. Thank you, for your mindful attention on ________. Help me to breathe out the distraction of mindless things. Give ________ and me the courage to focus on what is right and good—good for all. Help ________ draw on the power of Christ’s purposes and notice Jesus in the center of the heart in each moment today. Amen.

How will I intentionally nurture ________ today:
