Dear God, 

After a deep snowfall a few days ago, I started watching footprints appear.  I have no idea who or what traipsed through the snow in my yard and woods but I love seeing evidence of all who felt welcome to come.  I love sharing life with all those who lived here before me, all the wildlife who called it home before I did.

While the scene brings great joy to me, I wonder if I have left tracks of joy wherever I have trod.  Have I made a mark anywhere?  Have I sprinkled joy in the wake of my own journey?  Have I welcomed others to join me?

Sometimes it takes strange tracks to inspire us to think of you.

Blessed are you,

Loving God.

Thank you

for unexpected gifts.

Thank you

for strange visitors

in whose light

I see your light.

Love, Andrea
