Lord
Thank You for this wild, unfettered day!
This day may not be all play
I still have chores to complete
responsibilities to honor
— but the day is mine.
The schedule is in my hands.
Today, I choose my moments.
Thank You for this day to center myself
to get caught up
to refuel and blow off steam—
all in the order
and at the pace of my choosing.
Thank You for this day to remember
that I belong to myself
as much as I belong to anyone else.
Thank You for the incomparable honor
of belonging first and foremost to You.
Amen
