God,
Let me breathe today.
Breathe in the soft air of autumn.
Breathe in the wonder of your hand print
In the color of maple leaves
And the sound of the stream over moss covered rocks.
Let me breathe out worry.
Breathe out the urgency of today’s
or tomorrow’s list.
In this space, let me hear my heart,
And let my breathing by my prayer
of gratitude.
Amen.
