Between Us
Remember:
the space between us
is a prayer,
not a rebuke.
Holy,
not a criticism.
***Story Questions:
What does the space between you feel like?
What is your relationship with criticism? As a child? As a parent? As an adult?
What would it look like in practice if the space between us was a prayer? How would that change things? What would you do differently?
