I saw a post that had “thoughts and prayers” crossed out and “policy and change” instead. That resonated.

No one likes hearing that they are wrong. Because whenever that happens, we know deep in our heart it’s the truth. And the worst is, you thought you got it right.

God of all people, parent of every being, breath of life! We come with prayers before you today.

You just do what feels right in that moment. And then you go with the flow. And people remember it years later.

“I must have misheard”, Hazel thought to herself. “God clearly doesn’t want me to become a pastor.”
