Today’s prayer arrived very soon after yesterday’s (https://wp.me/p45bCr-cFG). It recognises still further how incredibly fragile and vulnerable we all are:
Going at once to Jesus, Judas said, “Rabbi!” and kissed him. The men seized Jesus and arrested him (Mark 14; 45-6; NIV).
One word, one kiss,
One cross, one breath:
We’re just one step
Away from death.
One blow, one shot,
One bomb, one breath:
We’re all one step
Away from death.
When you take away their breath, they die and turn again to dust (Psalm 104:29; NLT).
