A Woman’s Prayer

Lent 19/40

Dear Lord,
Its a beautiful day, not a cloud -
But somewhere someone dries her tears alone.
I'm guilty of receiving too much sunshine,

of walking on, when I should've stopped, last night 11pm, that woman we saw was ragged with sleep and a baby...between traffic lights;
life's too fast and I'm too slow.

Can it be such blue skies + our varieties of lows & highs: rested, restless, arrested I am, by Your Face looking in at me, today. Asking Grace to receive what's mine, & '...give the Grace I have received...'

the ability to be the best I can, esp to another woman. What'd You do Jesus: _You stopped by that Woman at the Well, (Bible story) irrespective of caste, and asked her for water.

By doing that You gave her recognition, acceptance, counsel, healing, freedom from guilt & invisibilty, release. You unshackled her.
Then You gave her Eternal Life,

like water flowing free in our thirst for freedom..
I pray we all be like that woman at the well. Looked at by You, like that.
I pray this in Jesus' name,

Gratitude
Amen.
