The Gift of Senses
"Taste and see that the Lord is good."
— Psalm 34:8
Creator,
My five senses allow me to experience the richness of the world. Through them, I see, hear, smell, taste, touch. They are my windows to life.
Thank You for my senses. For eyes that see the colors of creation, ears that hear the sounds of life, a nose that smells fragrances, a tongue that tastes flavors, skin that feels the world.
May I use them fully, consciously. May I not go through life as a sensory sleepwalker but truly savor every experience.
Amen.

Reflection
Choose one sense today and awaken it particularly. Really see, really listen, really taste.
For those who have lost the use of a sense and that we may use ours fully.
