Today's Prayer Dec. 1, 2025
Holy God, I am tired!
Tired of the fear-filled news,
Tired of the cruelty toward neighbors,
Tired of the deafening silence from leaders,
Tired of being always on edge,
Tired of screaming into the void,
Tired of holding hope against despair.
Meet me in my tiredness, O God.
Meet me in the ache of these long days
And breathe your strength into my bones.
For the sake of your love.
Amen.
Rt. Rev. Deon K. Johnson, Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Missouri, Facebook.
