Dear God,

You call to us first thing in the morning before we rise.  You want to whisper your good morning to us as a way to tend to our relationship.  As holy father to us, you desire to let us know of your love and care.  You know if we begin fresh with you each new day, we strengthen ourselves for the day ahead.  We place our focus right where it should be.  We begin with love, affirmation, and faith.

On days where we begin with you, the end of the day makes us glad because we know we started the day with you and we end it with you.  The in-between time has chance for many holy encounters.  We see through the eyes of faith.  We hear through the ears of faith.  We love through the heart of faith.  We understand through the mind of faith.  We live with faith. 

Blessed Lord,
author of faith
and love,
thank you
for beginnings
and endings
with you.
Thank you
for middle moments
with you.
Thank you
for initiating
our relationship
with you
and keeping it well
with you.
Your name is glory
and always will be.
Thine be the glory
now and forevermore.

Love, Andrea
