Dear God,

Your spirit is constantly moving touching us at times and places we don't expect.  Anytime can be a spirit event because your living presence is always with us.

Early in the morning as I sat on the cold hilly ground pulling thousands of tiny weeds I looked over my shoulder and saw a mirror reflection of the landscape on the other side of the river.  With the wind still, the sky blue, and few billowy white clouds in the sky I thought of the ways you cause us to see your reflection in the world and what a sight it is, a magnificent reflection of love, grace, and compassion.

I was taken by the beautiful scene before me and I thought how blessed I was to turn around at just that instant.  How I wish I was always attuned to your spirit so whenever you were moving I would be captured by it.

Breathe on me,
Living Spirit,
let the wind
of your love
move all
around me.
Bend my will
to yours.
Open my heart,
my eyes,
and my ears
so I
am ready,
poised for yet
another spirit moment.
Then allow me
to carry
your spirit joy
to others,
I pray.

Love, Andrea
