A Prayer for When Stress Makes Us Forget the Good

Loving God,

sometimes the stress we carry

makes it hard to notice

all the good still around us.

Help us remember

the people who love us,

and the many strangers

whose work makes our lives better.

Help us remain open

to the beauty of creation,

and to the wonder

of all that human beings

are still capable of making together.

For whatever measure

of health and strength we enjoy,

and for sound minds,

let us give thanks.

For the opportunity

to learn and grow,

and for the opportunity

to make a difference,

let us rejoice.

As the Psalmist calls us:

“Clap your hands, all you peoples;

shout to God with loud songs of joy.”

— from Psalm 47:1

This is our prayer,

and we pray it in your name.

Amen.
