A Prayer of Stability
Brother Jesus,
you have reminded me of my need
to anchor my soul in a place of prayer,
a place where we can come together
to worship the Father.
Free me from my restless activity,
my slavery to the clock,
my habit of bobbing along on the open sea
when you have called me to be still.
When I consider how you consented to enclosure
in Mary’s womb,
in a narrow manger,
in a carpenter’s home,
on the wooden cross,
in the bread of Eucharist,
my heart is moved to seek enclosure with you.
Amen.
Gloria Hutchinson
