Father, I am grateful and I almost did not stop to say so.
It is one of those rare moments. The kitchen is warm. The people I love are alive. The thing I was scared about did not happen this time. The body works. The roof holds.
I know what it costs me when I do not stop. I rush past Your fingerprints on the day.
So this is me stopping.
For the breakfast I did not have to skip. For the prayer that landed. For the small thing that went right. For the fact that the worst news is not today's news.
You are still good. I see it. I want to say it out loud before the next thing comes.
In Jesus' name we pray. Amen.
