May Day 1 - The S Prayer and Am I Willing?
As you read the reflection from today’s prayer practice below, share your own experience, hangups, or actions for today in a comment below.
Today started with picturing a table and Jesus approaching you there, sitting with you.
Then, slowing down and breathing, noticing how your body felt when doing so, and discovering a main emotion rising up or hiding under the surface.
You were invited to surrender the feeling through an action and then to simply sit with Jesus again, telling him about this emotion.
Some of the prompts through the prayer were
What are you carrying?
How are you carrying it?
What does the emotion you feel take the shape of?
Pick an action to do with this emotion
And finally, the question Am I Willing?
Did one of the prompts stand out more than others? As you identify your honest answer to this question - yes, no, maybe, not sure…..
Perhaps go deeper by asking- Am I Willing TODAY?
However you answered this question, move forward with it today. Maybe that means saying yes to something instead of no, for today, or adding time to your schedule to listen and slow down, instead of completing another task. Wherever you fall in the answer to being willing, you have the agency to move forward with it.
And you’re not alone in that either! We’re here, all identifying the same invitation and taking a step of faith.
