sabbath rest
:: examination of conscience ::
God knows us through and through–and loves us deeply.
Reflect in silence on the ways in which the Lord has guided you and given you hope,
and on the ways in which you have accepted or refused God’s guidance.
:: prayer ::
Lord Jesus Christ,
light in our darkness, peace in our storms, protection against all that frightens us,
calm our hearts that we may rest in peace in your presence,
who lives and reigns with God the father and the Holy Spirit,
one God for ever and ever. Amen.

To that beautiful prayer I say “amen.”
Great words for a long day of prodromal labor. I must truly rest.
drink plenty of water, walk and rest, sleep…that baby is coming!
