Lord, help me to bridge the world of today which is in front of me and the world of all time in which you live. When I grasp desperately at time to fulfill my commitments to colleagues and friends and family, keep reminding me to make time to think of your Word. And most of all, help me to open my mind and heart to what matters most of all, not the urgent things that must be done but the love and trust which must underlie all those activities, without which they are pointless. Amen
