My dearest God,

I awakened this morning to a cool, beautiful, blue sky and white billowy cloud day. As I lay in bed, the sun rising to my right, I found myself saying, "I am lying here next to my husband in our home in Maine because you changed me and my world."

I believe that you always have your best interest in us as human beings. I believe you care for each person individually. I believe we are equally related to you, not some far and some close. I believe you tend to each one regardless of status, background, condition or anything else that may seem a barrier to access. I believe my circumstances changed because you were leading me.

As I prayed, my husband stirred and I leaned over to kiss him.

You, O God,
are supreme
among all gods.
You are
the one
and only God
of humanity.
I give thanks
and offer
my life
to you
as a testimony
to my gratitude.

Love, Andrea
