Dear God,

Epiphany...I never want to miss this day.  I always want to examine my own spiritual life, my faith and listen for your voice challenging me to consider what gift I am willing to give the savior.

My greatest desire is to be open, open to you, your spirit, your call on my life.  I do not want to miss anything, whether that is good, bad, helpful or not, I never want to miss your reaching out to me.  For years I was not open to your call, your gentle whisper; I wanted to lead my own life, set my own goals, and do my own thing.  But that is not of great import to me anymore.  I find much greater joy in fulfilling your desire for my life.

Thank you
for opening me
to you,
Holy Lord,
for loving
me enough
to challenge me
to a
deeper relationship.
Thank you
for Epiphany
and the marvel
and humble joy
of returning
to the stable
and manger.
Only on
my knees
shall I
find you.

Love always, Andrea
