My dearest God,

Calm in the midst of a dark, snowy drive reminded me how you make good on your promises.  I had to get to my daughter and her family and I thought I would be able to get there before the snow fell.  But I didn't beat it; I actually got into the very middle of it with more snow the farther north I drove.  Although I always have a hard time seeing at night, the huge amount of traffic, the falling snow, and the precipitation being thrown up on the windshield by passing trucks and cars, I felt nearly blind at times.  Yet, I found myself cool and quiet as I drove slowly and relied on your presence to assist me.

I have come to realize there is no situation in which you do not care.  You want to help us, comfort us, and lead us.  You want us to be your constant companions.  Whatever we face, you are there as long as we stay close.

Thank you,
Heavenly Father,
for love
that keeps us close.
Thank you
for mercy
that calls us back.
Thank you
for help
along the way.

Love always, Andrea
