Jesus, we come to rest in your presence. For this moment, we set down all that we have carried here. Our hurry. Our worries. Whatever we could not finish today. We thank you for the wood around us. For the water on the hot stones. For the warmth we share. Bring a little stillness to our hearts. Let our shoulders soften and our thoughts come to rest. With you, we have nothing to prove. We are welcome here. Just as we are. Help us look upon ourselves with kindness and open our hearts to those beside us. And when we leave this room, let us carry a little of your love into the world. As patience. As kindness. As peace. Stay with us, Jesus. Today, and wherever our path may lead. Amen.
