Sometimes, O God, my thirst for you is pushed aside, ignored, or simply quenched by something other—something reasonable, something more popular—than you. But you never go away, never stop, never leave the depths of me. Like an underground spring, you are fresh and free, breaking through. Help me prepare a place for you in the caverns of my soul. Amen. (a prayer by Pamela Hawkins, from page 36 of The Awkward Season: Prayers for Lent, copyright 2009 by Pamela Hawkins)
