PRAYERS & DEVOTIONAL

June 26 Prayer

6/26/2021

 
Picture
June 26 Prayer

Saturday slow down

A Slow down in the fast city
Autos roar above and behind me
Joggers feet keep a gentle rhythm to their
own hearts beat

The swishing of ebikes passing by
above the harbor

Birds fly in their predestined v formation
leading the way for others to follow

Tanned brown skins walking small black dogs
People walking with backpacks and phones
and carts to carry their goods back home

A mother with babe swaddled tightly in her front pack
A little child in a blue green jumper
running on wobbly legs

A parade of humanity passing me by

There in the slow down
I see Jesus
In the faces
and in the races
In the skyscrapers reaching high into the heavens until you can no longer see them

We are all passing by
Someone we are
Somewhere we will be

This moment is a gift wherever you are
And if you look into the eyes of the passer by
you may see another for the first time

Like the woman reaching to touch the hem of his garment
There may be the one reaching out to you
to take a second glance letting your eyes meet
in the slow down

Today,
May we look with compassion upon the world that Jesus lives in.
