Dear God,

After being away from church for a long time, my 10-year-old grandson leaned over and said to me, "Grandma, I want to eat that bread the preacher talked about."  Referring to Holy Communion, I told him we would go up together to eat."  There are few things that bless more than a child who longs to eat the bread of life.

Every day you bless us with gifts from on high.  You use every venue, every opportune moment, and unsuspecting condition to show us your light.  Sometimes, many times we miss it.  At other times we see your face, feel your hand, and hear your voice speaking to us.  This morning was one of those times and this grandmother is so grateful, so very, very grateful.

Thank you,
Loving God,
for every blessing.
Thank you
for Rylan,
his tender heart,
and his hunger
for you.
Bless him
with faith,
deep faith,
I pray.

Love, Andrea
