Dear God,

Your compassion shows! Your mercy spills out when one person exhibits kindness. Today we were aware of your living presence.

How do you know God is real?  Some will ask.  How do you know if God is with you?  When kindness comes your way, when beauty shines, when love is given, when grace is extended, when peace comes, when an answer bubbles up out of the darkness, when hope arises...that's how I know you.

The doctor's tenderness was your voice today when he called us by phone.  His way, his words, his understanding hollered the love of God, yours.

Merciful God,
so full
of love
for all
your children,
we bow down
before you
in thanksgiving.

Love, Andrea
