Meet me, O Christ, in this stillness of morning. Move me, O Spirit, to quiet my heart. Mend me, O Father, from yesterday's harms. From the discords of yesterday, resurrect my peace. From the discouragements of yesterday, resurrect my hope. From the weariness of yesterday, resurrect my strength. From the doubts of yesterday, resurrect my faith. From the wounds of yesterday, resurrect my love. Let me enter this new day, aware of my need, awake to your Grace, O Lord. Amen. -From Every Moment Holy -Written by Doug McKelvey -Published by Rabbit Room Press -Copywrite 2017 Dougless McKelvey
Okay whoa... that was just so simple, so beautiful & so perfect to unexpectedly run into!
Wow.
At 4:58 am this is everything I needed.
Thank you.
So moving. Thank you for this.
Ordinary to extraordinary to sacred... Thank you for reading this liturgy. I join you in sharing a cuppa at the start of the day.
Meet me, O Christ,
in this stillness of morning.
Move me, O Spirit,
to quiet my heart.
Mend me, O Father,
from yesterday's harms.
From the discords of yesterday,
resurrect my peace.
From the discouragements of yesterday,
resurrect my hope.
From the weariness of yesterday,
resurrect my strength.
From the doubts of yesterday,
resurrect my faith.
From the wounds of yesterday,
resurrect my love.
Let me enter this new day,
aware of my need,
awake
to your Grace,
O Lord.
Amen.

Man, needed this one this morning.
"quiet my heart" ironic for coffee which increases the heart rate
The wonderful thing about coffee is that it has both a stimulating and a calming effect.
