Dear God,

Today the day was cloudy.  A little misty rain fell from gray clouds as I sat in the airplane waiting for take off.  I knew what lay ahead in just a few minutes.  I smiled.

Years ago my heart was broken.  I felt lost, lonely and forgotten.  I had to board a plane for a flight to Maine where I would gather up precious items that were mine from my broken marriage.  It was stormy outside, the dark gray clouds mimicking my own dark soul.  I looked outside as raindrops slid down the small plane window.  I wept as the plane began to climb.  Within minutes we broke through the clouds where blue skies reigned and the bright sun's rays spread.  I found hope realizing the sun is always shining even when dark clouds is all we can see.  I learned a lesson that day.

Holy God,

thank you

for the gift

of hope

that is

always possible.

Thank you

for today's reminder.

Thank you

for faith

that speaks

again and again

and again.

Love, Andrea
