My dearest God,

A day lived without sacred silence is a day missing its central core.  The quiet sitting at your feet is the best part of any day.

Although I pray off and on all day, if I fail to take time aside to completely focus on our life together, there is a space lost of its treasure, its warmth, and its beauty.  I forfeit all that when I choose to focus my attention elsewhere.

Why, O Lord, would I want to rob myself of spiritual intimacy?

Holy God,
you are worthy
of my
full attention.
You are worthy
of my love.
You are worthy
of my gratitude.
Please forgive me
when I fail
to keep up
my side
of the relationship.

Love, Andrea
