Prayer for today

Jesus, be near me.
I need to feel your presence.
My children are loud and needy,
and my own strength failing.
I fight for my breath.
I fight for my space.
I fight to speak my feelings.
Now the warrior is tired and I need to be held.

Jesus, hold me.
Let me feel your embrace and sense your Mind.
I'm anxious for your touch
like my son is anxious for mine.
I'm a mother and a wife and a friend,
but my dearest self is your child.

Speak to me, Father
Tell me who I am
Show me your Presence in my timeline
Touch my mind and help me dream again
Heal my heart and give me rest

Spirit, come nearer still.
You comfort and lead.
You silence my storm
You speak through the rain.
You wrap me in love.
Don't let go. Don't let me go.
