My dearest God,

As the darkness of the morning gives way to the light, I listen to music of the soul. Songs of faith and hope, joy and love sing to me of your wondrous grace. "Only in you do I find my rest," the soloist sings, "only in you." My heart is restless without you, O Lord, my own heart sings.

Music calls to the deep within me. I may be disheartened at the moment but as I listen and sing, I hear heaven's angels sing their love song and my whole disposition can change. I shake off my worries and concerns and join heaven's choir.

The melodies
of heaven
proclaim to me
your goodness,
your love,
your grace
and joy,
Most Wonderful God.
I hear
the voice
of invitation,
sing, dear Andrea,
sing with us,
the songs
of creation.
I open
my mouth
and glory forms
within me.
I know
the One
who has created
creation's song.
I start
to sing
and my
voice blends
to sing
heaven's love song.

Love always, Andrea
