# Prayer for today

Use a short prayer for today. It comes with one Bible passage and a practical action.

Today**Attention**Today's focus

God, help me notice the person and task in front of me. Keep me from rushing past the care this day requires. Amen.

One small action

Give one conversation your full attention.

[Read **Luke 10:38-42** ↗](https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Luke%2010%3A38-42&version=NRSVUE)

Return

## Let repetition do some of the work

Use the prayer once now. Bring its focus back to mind before lunch or at the end of the day.
