I see people, LORD, by they're all a blur of activity...a little like trees walking about. Go here! Go there! Do this! Do that! It's like we're all in a frantic scramble of climb and push and shove.
I'd really like to know each person as a unique individual, Lord, not just as a consumer or a competitor. But how? Too many people enter my day for me to pay attention to them all.
If I cannot truly "see" everyone, Lord, may I at least see someone. Help me to see that solitary individual...and for the rest---forgive, O Lord, forgive. Amen.
(Foster, Richard. Prayers from the Heart. HarperSanFrancisco, 1994, p. 82.)
