Heart breaks once again.
My grief shows up randomly.
Grace embraces me.
#haikuprayers2025 #newyearseve #repray
Standing on the edge.
Thin place between old and new.
Guide our steps, O'God.
#haikuprayers2025
Grief and Grace dancing.
Grief tries to lead the movement.
Grace plays the music!

My Epiphany:
You adore the entire world.
And that includes me!
#haikuprayers2025
Water and God’s Word.
Baptismal promises made.
Nothing Separates.
#haikuprayers2025 #adventword2025
Forgiven by God
Forgiven by those I’ve hurt
Cleansed from all my shame
I am cleansed by God
Buoyant Grace keeps me afloat.
Can I forgive me?
#haikuprayers2025 #adventword2025
It is an honor
to be claimed and named by You.
My heart has been changed.
My heart has been changed.
I try to honor You, God
My doubt rises up.
My doubt rises up.
You listen and do not judge.
“Honor is all Mine.”
#haikuprayers2025 #adventword2025
My prayers half written
My questions get in my way
Yet, Questions are prayers.
My prayers curl upwards,
A question mark gets written.
Questionable Prayers
Questionable Prayers
Containers that hold my doubts
Prayers fully written.

This is Equity:
Called to Lift up the oppressed
Seeing the other.
Seeing the other,
Called to see them as Jesus
Equity in spades.
Equity in Spades
We’re Putting Christ in Christmas
Helping share God’s Grace
#haikuprayers2025 #adventword2025
I mess up again.
I can’t revel in this truth.
Grace redeems us all.
Grace redeems us all.
Let us revel in this truth.
We are forgiven.
#haikuprayers2025 #adventword2025
In the Quietness
You speak Grace to my hurt heart.
Voice whispers, “You’re loved!”
Voice whispers, “You’re loved!”
Chaos morphs to quietness.
I hear Your voice, God.
I hear Your voice, God.
Healing heart surfs waves of Grace
Found in quietness.
#haikuprayers2025 #adventword2025
Tribes drawn together,
Created by Holy Breath.
Grace woven people.
#haikuprayers2025 #adventword2025
AdventWord - “Said”
You said, “I love you!”
I need You to repeat that!
Grace has the last word!
Grace has the last word!
You said, “Nothing separates!”
I said, “I love You!”
#haikuprayers2025 #adventword2025
Grace finds me again.
God’s love redeems me, again!
Grace, and again - Grace!
#haikuprayers2025
I lack all knowledge.
Yet, You show up full of Grace.
Guide my mind and feet!
#haikuprayers2025
I start to shut down.
Stress rages, and I’m flailing.
Wake me up, O’ God.
#haikuprayers2025
God, I am grateful.
Your Grace embraces us all.
So we’re called to love.
#haikuprayers2025
Today is the day.
The day I lean into Grace.
God, I’ll need Your help!
#haikuprayers2025
Is that an earthquake?
Anxiety ravages.
God, I need Your peace.
