Dear God,

Today marked a new chapter in my family.  Although I don't want to be too public about my family, suffice it to say today was a great day.

When I read biblical stories of families with troubles and how they overcame them, I pray for a happy ending like theirs.  What I have found to be true is that wishing, hoping and praying for something and expecting you to create the wondrous miracle alone rarely works for me.  There is always something you expect of me...change, confession, work, shifting perspectives and on and on.  Only then do you seem to open doors that I am invited to walk through.

Thank you
for today,
O Lord.
Thank you
for my child.
Thank you
for circumstances
where your hand
is always apparent.

Love, Andrea
