TGIF

Lord God,
The weekend looms near. It waits just beyond my grasp, beckoning me into the future so that I might sleep in, play, enjoy your good creation. It calls me as a child calls, with no restrictions, no boundaries, no rules.
Grant that I enjoy today as much as tomorrow. May I not discard this day today but instead revel in it. It may not be the weekend, but it is still a gift from you, a blessing from on high, and if I fail to treasure it today will slip away, never to be lived again. Grant that I may love today, be grateful for it, and use it to praise your holy name.
Amen
