Dear God,

Today is a brand new day.  Because it is still morning and the sun is hidden behind gray clouds, this day offers promise.  I can spend the day anyway I want.  I can sit at the beach and watch the waves pound the coastline.  I can clear the ground where the spiritual path continues in my woods.  I can sit and read a book but what I choose to do today is give thanks and praise you all day long.  My blessings are many.  My gifts are many.  My gratitude is deep and wide.  All praise to you, Wondrous and Eternal God.  Thank you.

Why do
you bless
so much
and in
so many ways,
O Lord?
I am not
a saint.
I don't deserve
all you
give me.
Yet, each day
I awaken
to the promise
of a
new day.
All I
can say
is thank you,
thank you,
thank you.

Love, Andrea
