Cause us to breathe deeply, Loving God, just for this moment, a letting go of worry and anxiety about all that’s left to do. Center us in your amazing grace so that we may hear the flutter of angel wings, know the gift of your peace, receive the gift of our healing and live in the grace of your forgiveness.

May each breath open us to the simple and beautiful ways you are with us. Open us to the Child who comes to love us. Amen.
