Try slowing your breath, praying this, and pausing to be still in the presence of God.
I breathe in, Hā ki roto,
I breathe out. Hā ki waho.
Quietly, I draw close to God Mārire ana taku whakapiri ki te Atua
I know who I am, Ka mōhio ahau ki a au
I know I belong. Ka mōhio ahau ki tōku ahikā
I recall the path behind, Taku mahara ki te ara i muri
And the way ahead emerges. Ka rewa mai te ara ki mua
Life is a remarkable adventure! He inati te ora he mātātoa!
