Pause to Enjoy

Dear Lord please be with us this day and may Your Holy Spirit please be guiding and protecting us in every thing that we say and do. Thank You for all of the great gifts and blessings and protection that You have given us and please forgive our sins the same as we forgive the mistakes of others.
Dear Lord please lead us on paths of patience this day and may we not hurry through the day with out pausing to enjoy the beauty of Your Creation that You have made available to us in the sight of wonders of different colors and shades or the joys of taste of food and drink or the smells of fragrance in the wind of flower and earth or the songs of creatures often hidden never to be seen but only heard.  In Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.
