a tuesday prayer for complicated and simple days...

Ah, God,
it has been such a complicated and simple time
these days...
the love of dear ones
holding tight,
the simple joy
of laughter,
tears,
quiet.
rest.
gratefulness for the single, crystal clear moments.

and then,
oh,
the confusion
of anxiety,
of fractured hearts,
of missed opportunities
of missed-understandings.

wherever
the complicated and simple days
find us,
whether at work or home or play
or deep within our souls,

oh dear God,
have mercy.
oh dear God,
thank you.
oh dear God,
thank God
that you are God and we are not.
amen.
