Dear God,

Every day in the summer I spend hours in the dirt.  Clearing, cleaning, raking, pulling, and planting, I take what you have given me to do along the spiritual path and I do it.  This morning it was the same except that I found myself singing aloud, "Let the beauty of Jesus be seen in me.  All his wonderful passion and purity.  O thou spirit divine, all my nature refine till the beauty of Jesus is seen in me."  The song we learned in choir had made its way into my heart and soul.

You give each of us a song to sing, O Lord.  You want joy for us and so you place a special song inside us to sing.  And when we do it is like a mantra, a hymn of praise, a song of faith.

Thank you,
Loving God,
for caring
so much.
Thank you
for your song
you plant
in us.
May we
always sing
for you.

Love, Andrea
