Dearest God,

Obedience. I am trying to be obedient to your call. In two days I will have two retreatants who will join me for spiritual direction in my House of Blessing. I have met with both of them, talking about what to bring, both the tangibles and intangibles that will set the stage for a time of spiritual conversation and living. While I have done spiritual direction for years, this will be the first time to be totally focused on two persons, leading and gently guiding them for two days toward you.

And so I pray for your loving presence to fill this home. I ask for your Spirit to be the true guide. I pray that those who come will sense your Spirit power here waiting for them. Use me, your servant, to do your perfect will.

I am yours,
O God.
Open my heart.
Sensitize my spirit.
Lead me.

Love, Andrea
