Dear God,

Seeking your will is not always easy.  We read the signs through our own mind and senses.  Yet, when we are open to all that is even beyond our usual way of thinking, you can speak to us anew.

Sometimes we have to hear things we don't want to hear.  We have to be silent and listen instead of speak.  We have to allow all our senses to attend to what comes our way.  We have to let faith open us to more of you and less of our self.  Only then can we be ready to affirm your will for us.

Although at times
it is difficult
to ask
for your will,
it is still
what I
long for.
What good
is a
carefree life
without a
deep center?
Speak, O lord,
and help me listen.

Love, Andrea
