Scripture
Reflection
Take inventory of your soul. What do you carry that weighs you down? What do you carry that brings you to life? Know that God sees it all, and calls you by name.
Prayer
Gracious God, you see me when I am down, and you invite me to tell you about it. You ask me, “What is your name?” And in that moment, I can respond with the lies that cover me, or I can respond, “I am a child of God.” No matter what I say, I know that you love me. What a gift to be seen and called by name. Amen.
