Taking a Moment to Pray

Heavenly Father, Thank you for giving me this day.
 

Please help me to use its moments wisely, To say "yes" that I have a minute, Rather than being a passer-by; To pray for people in the aftermath Of moments that have ravaged their lives; To celebrate the ethereal moments, The ones I have wished could last forever; To know when waiting a minute Isn't wasting it; And to plan when it is prudent, Yet taking the moments one at a time.

Amen.
