Dear God,

You invite us inside your story, O God.  You allow us to enter into the divine story where healings, miracles, angels, hopes and faith reside.  There you grant us grace to dwell, breathe in, and feel the joy of a living relationship with you.

I am putting together a Christmas book of memories for our church, Good Samaritan Church.  Twenty plus people have written their stories, holy moments with family, church, traditions, outreach and rituals.  Each one tells a part of your story without necessarily realizing the central role you play in each one, including myself.  Yet, as I read and write and edit, I find myself "inside" and reveling in the opportunity and joy.

Holy God,
thank you
for inviting us in.
Thank you
for blessing us.
Thank you
for our stories,
human and divine.

Love always, Andrea
