My dear God,

I see the benefits of faith all around me. With great interest I see and hear your spirit's presence. I awaken to the new day and find you as close as my breath. I turn on my music and I am inspired by lyrics and tunes that declare the message of Christmas. When my husband rises from our bed to greet me as I write, I find love meeting me. As we share throughout the day, the word "miracle" comes to me as we live our lives so differently than just a year ago. As I go about my day encountering friends and strangers alike, I sense you are in each conversation urging us as brothers and sisters. As the sun drops nightly from the sky, I see nothing but beauty staring back at me.

God of Wonder,
in the stillness
of morning
and night,
I welcome
your peace,
your presence,
your purpose,
your love.

Always, Andrea
