Midweek Prayer

So much heat, Gracious God.  We seek a gentle breeze, a bit of shade, a cool drink. Our bodies remind us that small things bring a measure of relief.  May we, too, through small acts of kindness, show love to those we will encounter today.  It could be an encouraging word, a warm smile, or just the silence and space someone needs to feel understood.  We rest in you, Almighty One.  Make us an oasis that others may experience a measure of your peace and your love. Amen.
