Dear God,

Your way always takes us to the light.  Wherever we may be in life, you take us where we are to the radiant light of faith.  You move us from darkness to the light.

We may forget the light exists.  We may look in many directions for the light but only you offer us the light of faith.  Only you can lift the veil, remove the blinders from our eyes, and escort us to true light that shines like no other.

One encounter with your light feeds our soul so much spiritual food.  When we feel your nearness we breathe differently because we know we do not need to fear, to be anxious, or to worry.  Your light warms our heart, fills our soul, and brings gladness to the surface where we most often live.  You change us because we realize we do not carry our burden alone.  There is One whose strength, mercy, and love will shoulder the greatest part of the load. 

Your light reveals your love for us.  In the face of such love, we naturally move to the light, the light of faith.

Compassionate God,
full of mercy,
thank you
for your light
that brightens
our path.
Thank you
for blessing us
with faith
that helps us
see the light.
Thank you
for love
that is never ending.

Love always, Andrea
