A Collect for Beginning Again
Part of the Friday Collect Series
The Friday Collect Series is where I share a short prayer - a Collect - and invite you into a time of contemplation.
These are prayers that I have written over time, either during my own contemplation, after a verse in Scripture captured my attention, or with a specific theme in mind.
At the end of each prayer I share a question or two
for you to ponder. You may wish to think about it right away, or you may wish to reflect on it over the weekend.
Unsure what a Collect is? You can read about there here…
A Collect for Beginning Again
God of beginning and re-beginning,
The One who began with creation, and offers us the chance to begin again each morning.
Help me remember the beauty of beginning again and to realize that it's not a complete restart because I learned and grew in many ways last year.
You are present at each of our beginnings and re-beginnings, a quiet cheerleader encouraging us forward. Praise you God, for your presence.
Amen
Pause to Ponder…
How did you experience growth in the last year?
How was God a quiet cheerleader encouraging your forward?
