The prayer
A prayer to pray now
Father, Psalm 33 says You look down from heaven. Your looking is not watching to catch me. It is paying attention. I have felt invisible this week — to my husband most of the day, to the friends I have not heard from, even to myself in the bathroom mirror. You look. Steady, full attention, without distraction. Your look does not need anything from me. It just rests. Let me rest under it for one minute before the next demand begins. You see me. That is not nothing. That is the whole sky. Amen.
