Dear God,

A miracle has been unfolding for 13 years.  A gnarly, tangled woods filled with numerous invasive species has given way to a beautiful hill, path and river.  Truly, it has revealed itself as a sacred garden, holy ground.  

Who can do this kind of miracle work but you, O Lord?  Although I have joined your effort by digging in the dirt for all those years, I see the countless ways your spirit has been bringing healing to the land long neglected, filled with buckets of tossed debris, rusted toys, barbed wire and broken glass and let go to breed every unwanted weed, thorn and prickly bush.  

It started all those years ago with one simple sentence:  "There is the opening to the spiritual path."  More and more every day I am seeing it, hearing your voice and dancing in my own spirit.  What can I say to you, Gracious and Loving God?

Holy are you,

God on High,

your spirit work

amazes, blesses

and inspires.

Thank you

for letting me

walk and work

beside you.

I am overcome

with joy.

Love, Andrea
