Our distractions can take us by surprise.
Gently draining our time and energy
Altering the way we think and feel
Drawing us away from practices and community of light and love
And into the lonely darkness.
Devices, desires, dependence.
They dig their claws in deeply
And hold on for death’s sake.
A Blessing for the Distracted
Beloved,
Blessed are you who lift up your eyes
To the Creator who made Heaven and Earth.
Blessed are you who lift up your eyes
To the Christ who has shown the way of truth and life.
Blessed are you who lift up your eyes
To the Spirit present within and all around.
Blessed are you.
Pray…Give…Go.
