My dearest God,

I spent most of the summer inside due to the heat. Sweating too much can lead me to the hospital. Which is why I am excited on these cool fall mornings. I walk outside, breathe in the crisp air and smile. For me it's like the first days of spring.

I look around my yard, the garden and trees and I think of the joy of the human senses. I get to see the changing colors, hear the birds sing, touch the autumn flowers. I get to taste the delicious hot drinks I sip on the patio. I am full of joy.

Thank you,
dear God
for the
changing seasons.
I am
paying attention.
I see
your artist's hand
painting the
next color
and I
am feeling
your grace-filled love.
My heart
is filled
with gratitude.

Love, Andrea
