Dear God,

No one can penetrate the human heart, mind, and soul like you, O Lord.  You use every sense to reach our depths.  There you heal, speak, calm, love, and bless.  Often we do not know you are dwelling within us until suddenly we feel a shift in our thinking, our feeling, or our well being.  Such high holy moments cause us to realize just how much you do for us.

I am always inspired by the way you use the music of faith to touch us.  I enter the church choir room and when we begin to sing, I feel your stirring.  I am awakened to faith that renews and restores me. I can begin the hour and a half feeling lonely, disappointed, or worried but when I leave I feel relieved, joyful, and blessed.  This is your work, Almighty God, this is your work.

Thank you
for dwelling
inside us,
Most Holy God.
Thank you
for your
spirit warmth
that heals
and helps.
Thank you
for caring
so deeply.

Love, Andrea
