Dear God,

I love the dance of the light and the darkness.  The darkness lets go for the light to come and vice versa.  Each offers a unique experience, beauty and mystery unfolding.  Each has a powerful voice and something to say.  Both are held in your big hands.

In the darkness I find the light waiting.  It speaks of peace, comfort and hope.  When the light shines bright it reveals beauty and goodness all around but it also shows sin and evil.  When held in tension, this light and the darkness, you speak profound words of truth.

Each day as I watch the light and darkness give way to the other, I realize how you invite us to let go, to surrender to the next step of our lives.  You call to us in a gentle whisper, "Let go and reach out."  We always find your hand waiting in the next step.  Always.

Almighty God,
thank you
for daily lessons.
Thank you
for the darkness
and the light.
Thank you
for the dance,
sacred in
all dimensions.

Love, Andrea
