My dearest God,

We talked for an hour and a half. My oldest daughter called to wish me a happy Mother's Day. What gratitude and joy filled my soul.

It wasn't so long ago that we were separated from one another. Hurts, disappointments, decisions, resentment and more kept us apart for many years. Then one day it was over, just like that. As I lay in bed resting after weeks of work and labor, it was such a gift to talk with Janice.

I find transformation remarkable. Like a caterpillar turning into a butterfly I have witnessed your brilliant power changing human lives. You've certainly altered my state of being more times over and I've watched your work in individuals around me. What a majestic thing it is to watch when someone crawls out of their cocoon in a state of great being. It is then that I see your hand print, evidence of your creative love and power.

Your miracle work
astounds me,
Gracious God.
How I love
to observe
your creative hands
at work.
Your love
first shines,
then your
transforming work.
Thank you
for today's
rich blessing.
I am
so grateful.

Love always, Andrea
