A prayer to pray now
Lord, Isaac stayed near a well called 'the One Who Sees Me.' He did not wander off. He stayed close to the place where God met him. Help me do the same. I want to stay near the places I meet You. The kitchen table where I read the Bible with someone I love. The corner of my bedroom where I pray at night. Church. The car when someone drives me to school. Help me come back to those places often. Amen.
