Dear God,

When we focus on God's blessings, really focus giving thanks, our hearts fill with gratitude.  How can they not?

Today I knew I would face a challenge.  Although I had initially wanted to handle it one way, you came to me asking me to trust you.  You showed me a better way.  As the challenge presented itself I felt the gentle breeze of your spirit blow and I rose with you.

Why is it we want our way only to discover our way will not give us what we want?  It is only when we want what you want that we ultimately gain so much more.  Not only that, we gain the supreme joy of pleasing you.

Holy God,
thank you
for the breeze
of your spirit.
Thank you
for blowing
on me.
Thank you
for changing
my heart.

Love, Andrea
