Dear God,

Even your name can calm an anxious soul.  Like a mantra, the name Jesus can bring tranquility, peace and hope.

How many times has my own soul been troubled?  Whether about health, family relationships, the political well being of our nation, friends or economics, any of these can raise up fear, pain and anger.  And yet, when my soul is restless, your name can bring serenity like nothing else.  I have cried out your name over and over again in the middle of night when without knowing it, I fell into a deep sleep and slept like a baby.

Your name has quieting qualities like your love.

Thank you

for the gift

of your name,

O God.

Thank you

for caring

about us.

Thank you

for bringing us peace.

Love, Andrea
