A Prayer for Presence

Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence? - Psalm 139:7

God and Father, I repent of my sinful preoccupation with ‘visible things,’ what we sometimes call ‘results’ or ‘productivity,’ especially in the workplace. The world has been too much with me—and I too much with the world. Still, You have been here with me all along and I knew it not. I have simply been blind to Your presence. Open my eyes that I may behold You in and around me. For Jesus’ sake, Amen.
