Two Prayers

All These Things

Dear Lord, help me to remember that you gave me life.

Thank you for the gift of life.

Teach me to slow down, to be still and enjoy the pleasures created for me. To be aware of the beauty that surrounds me: the marvel of mountains, the calmness of lakes, the fragility of a flower petal. I need to remember that all these things come from you.

Consciousness

Help me, Lord, become more conscious of your presence. Teach me to recognize your presence in others. Fill my heart with gratitude for the times your love has been shown to me through the care of others.

—Excerpted from Sacred Space: The Prayer Book 2025

  1. Where are the TWO PRFAYERS? How can I get a copy of the Sacred Space Prayer Books? I do NOT order on line, pay bills on line or anything financial?

    • Mary Lou, you can order the Sacred Space books by calling our customer service department at 800-621-1008, or order through a local bookstore. Thank you for your interest.

  2. This is perfect for me today. We are planning on spending a few days in the mountains this week where there are beautiful trees, flowers and lakes. Thank you
