Dear God,

Reunions are sweet!  Reunions that bring the faithful together is a grace from on high.  They unsettle the soil that hold people back and make it easy to pluck up, gather, and celebrate!

A dear friend returned to our fold.  She came bringing joy, peace, and memories galore.  Her vibrant spirit, her warm way, and her gentle faith tightened our circle of friendship.  Together we have soared the heavenlies because years ago your spirit wind blew upon us.  Faith that binds people together creates relationships that never really go away.  They may lie dormant from time to time because of circumstances but they never die.

Reunions with you are the same.  When we have seemed far and away, you call to us like the prodigal son.  You welcome us home, make a feast for us, and we celebrate. 

Loving God,
thank you
for reunions
that bring us
back together again.
Thank you
for your
powerful, merciful spirit
that blows
upon us
bringing us faith,
insight, and joy.
Thank you
for loving us
so much.

Forever yours, Andrea
