Dearest God,

I hear your spirit wind picking up. I feel a shifting going on, a shake up.

Being trapped in a box or stuck in the rut of a road, either way it's a frustrating feeling to be bogged down to the point where movement is almost nonexistent. You know I've been there so many times and I've been around others with the same perplexing situation.

You have taught me that it takes a spiritual push to finally relocate, to give the oomph necessary to alter one's life. Trust is the key to the door where new life waits, you've said often. And trust opens the door to fresh ideas for change. Courage takes it the rest of the way.

All around me I see your handprint where you are nudging people toward wholeness. I am witnessing a revolution of thought where persons are reconsidering former beliefs. It's really exciting not only that individuals are being transformed but also watching the Transformer up close and personal.

Let the wind
of your spirit
blow continually
upon us,
dear God.
Free us
from self-destructive ways.
Dislodge us
from the past
that weighs
us down
in hopelessness
and despair.
Reveal to us
a bright today
and tomorrow
simply because
your Son
is shining.
Let his
radiant glow
move us
from where
we are
to where
you want us
to be,
I pray.

Love, Andrea
