I’ll see you in church,

A Prayer for Stillness and Peace in the Noise of Christmas

Holy God, there is so much to do as we wait for the birth of Christ.

There are so many demands for us to make everything perfect.

It is easy to get distracted by the noise and the long to-do list.

Help me listen for your quiet love.

Help me breathe.

Help me trust that you will come again into this loud world with your peace.

Help me believe in your grace as I let imperfection be enough.

Help me set down the to-do list down and simply be.

Let me be ready, with open hands and an open heart.

Amen.[1]
