Reflection

“Slow down. Don’t allow others to hurry your healing. It is a process, one that may take years, occasionally, even a lifetime – and that’s OK.” –Beau Taplin

Prayer

Divine healer,

Our culture exerts a lot of pressure on us, to quickly put our problems in the past tense. Yet we know it’s not as simple as that. We all need time and the support of our community to work through the hurts that we carry. Help us to be patient with ourselves and patient with those we long to see restored and made whole. May we continue to thrive as a supportive community invested in the long-term work of seeing your healing come. May it come a little more through us today. Amen.

Call to Action

Is there someone in my life that I am struggling to accompany through the long process of healing? Admit the struggle today and find inspiration to remain patient with their process.
