My dearest God,

Can a miracle for some become a miracle to others? Or are miracles only for the open-minded?

My husband and I continue to live your miracle. You touched us with a vision, a hope, a promise and a new life. We took hold of it and have the joy of living it every day.

Why do some want the miracle, hold it dearly, know its source, and celebrate while others refuse to believe? Why are some cast down by it? What makes a miracle for some and not for others?

Open us
to your
living presence,
I pray.
Teach us
the way
of trust,
complete trust
that paves
the way
for whatever
you will.
Open us
to the greatness
of your grace
and love.
Inspire us
to want
what you want
and then
make us
open to receive.
Let praise erupt
in us
spilling forth
your glorious peace
to others,
O Lord,
so they too
may experience
the glories
of heaven.

Love, Andrea
