Dearest God,

There is no one better than you to wake up to in the early morning!  To begin that sleepy awakening thinking of you is the very best way to start the day!  It is a fresh, joyous way to rise from my bed!

Starting each day with the creator of the cosmos is like meeting a favorite movie star, author or friend.  It is exciting, peaceful and filled with hope.  I love it.

A long time ago you showed me the way to you.  The journey has been wondrous, yet, at times filled with straight-out questions that caused me to drop my head, to confess or to face up to difficult situations.  But always it has been fresh every day, not stale or boring or dull.  When I take the cue first thing in the morning, breathing in fresh air, opening my eyes and seeing gifts all around me, I know that I know that I know that I know you are the first one to greet me and the only one that will walk with me all day long, tucking me into bed at night and sitting beside my bed all night long.  Who would want anyone else?

Blessed are you,
Holy God,
blessed are you.
Thank you
for the gift
of faith,
eyes and ears
to eternity.
Thank you
for early morning,
for thank you quick checks,
and for
your holy
living presence.
I love you.

Always, Andrea
