“Almost everything will work again if you unplug it for a few minutes, including you.”
–Anne Lamott

Prayer

God our Strength,

We thank you for the ways in which you have blessed us with so many resources in this ministry. Such talented and gifted people, who pour their hearts and souls into what they do, even in times of stress and strain. Their dedication is inspiring to see, and we pray you continue to give them rest, energy, and especially joy in what they do—day in and day out. Towards that end, we pray that you would give space to all who are especially in need today. Give them freedom to “unplug,” even for a few meaningful moments, and thereby recoup their strength. Amen.

Call to Action

Be on the lookout today for someone especially in need of a moment to breathe. Help them “unplug” and share with each other a moment of rest.
