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:
Joel 2:12-14 Yet even now, says the LORD, return to me with all your heart, with fasting, with weeping, and with mourning; rend your hearts and not your clothing. Return to the LORD, your God, for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love, and relents from punishing. Who knows whether he will not turn and relent, and leave a blessing behind him, a grain offering and a drink offering for the LORD, your God?
Line the nest of God’s presence with this prayer for _______ and myself:
Holy God, thank you, for your grace and your mercy. Thank you, for your mindful attention on ________. Turn my attention back to you. Give ________ and me the strength and courage to return. Help my unbelief. Help us to notice your blessing, and then to extend it to those we encounter today. Amen.
How will I intentionally nurture ________ today:
PREPARE
REMEMBER HOW
