It's Friday! Yay! For those heading to the cottage we wish you safe travels. For those staying home and doing the things we do on the weekends, we wish you joy. And for those who have no idea what the weekend will bring, we wish you well.
A prayer for us today:
God of all our days, thank you for creating the sun and the moon to mark our days. Help us to enjoy them as they shine through the clouds. May we be mindful and listen to the sounds outside and appreciate the music the animals make and the aromas of the outdoors. Be with our friends who are recovering from floods and mudslides as they may be experiencing more rainy weather. Be with our friends who are preparing for or are fleeing from wildfires. Be with our friends who are awaiting test results, who are undergoing treatments, and who are anxious about what may come their way. Hold us all in the palm of your hand, O God, as we live out our days with hope, peace, love and joy to the best of our ability. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen.
