Dearest God,

Today we, you and I, traveled 601 miles in the car.  Although the first couple hours were filled with warning signs of possible black ice and most of the rest of the way was driving rain, still I looked out over your amazing creation and sighed with gratitude and joy.  From Maine to Pennsylvania I gazed at the majesty of mountains, rivers, and hills and valleys.  I was awestruck by so much wondrous beauty.

Whether spring buds, summer flowers, Autumn colors or winter white, everything seems to sing your praise.  What is a hill without a valley, a mountain without a plain, a river without land?  Each site pointed to scenes all around it and together they spoke of creation, faith and divine purpose.  

Sometimes we

expect heaven

to give

signs and wonders

of your

living presence;

yet, all

around us

is filled

with you.

We never

have to 

look far

to find you.

Thank you

for today's

special drive

filled with

prayer, contemplation,

joy, praise and thanksgiving.

Love, Andrea
