My dearest God,

Darkness draws me to you, O Lord.  Silence draws me to you.  The night skies draw me to you.  Do you make us with some sort of internal device that directly points us to you?

There is something so awe-inspiring about the early morning.  When all is quiet and dark, you draw me.  I breathe in the air of your spirit and find your living presence within me.  I know I am not capable of finding you on my own.  I believe you draw me, you draw all of us to you.

I am not sure when I first began loving the darkness so I could find your light.  It seems as though this has always been a special time with you but I know it was not always this way.  Something shifted, something changed me.  I can only believe your loving power altered something in my life, opening a wide door to you.  Once I slipped inside, I realized how beautiful a life with you could be.

Thank you
for all
the ways
you draw us
to you.
Thank you
for the
wondrous gift
of faith
that is
the door
to you.
Thank you
for the
luminous light
that shines brightly
always revealing
the way home.
Thank you
for divine love
that makes
it all possible.

Love, Andrea
