Dear God,

"Make straight the highway for our Lord."  These scriptural words came to me as the tree experts cut down the last of the dead trees.  The ground is being prepared for the spiritual highway on our land.  From the beginning the spiritual path and hermitage were your idea; I have simply followed your lead.

For 12 years you whispered your will for our land.  You showed me the way to the opening of the spiritual path.  You invited me to dig and keep on digging.  As I came to a fork you told me which way to go.  As I laid stones and added plants and flowers, your spirit breeze blew and it was obvious your spirit was with me and all those who have been laborers in your spiritual work. And in a few weeks work will begin on the spiritual hermitage, a monastery in the woods.

You are good,
so very,
very good,
O God.
You whisper
your will
to us.
You invite us
to follow you.
You breathe
your spirit breath
upon us.
We are blessed.

Love always, Andrea
