Fleeting Thoughts
Can I capture them?
While putting away my night clothes, a thought came to me. But the time I had finished, I could no longer recall it.
Walking the grounds, the idea I had moments ago has vanished.
❖
Were these thoughts unimportant, Lord? Or did you note them, with love, and might you deliver to me all my desires, even ones I forgot I had?
Even my fleeting thoughts are precious to you, Lord. Let me treat them so.
Consider:
Can I be more attentive to my inner life today?
