Dear God,

A few days ago I smelled Autumn in the gentle breeze.  I heard the sweet call of summer's rest ready to unfold as soon as you say so.  I admit I was caught up in the seasonal transition of not yet but soon to be.

Oh what we miss when we do not remain close to you!  We are equipped to see love unfold, joy explode and inner peace to pervade.  The world around us does not give us these, in fact, just the opposite.  It is you, Almighty and Eternal God, that gives us a peek at the spirit world designed to give us these needed resources, gifts and treasures.  As we draw closer and closer, we can witness the beginnings of love sprout, of joy bubbling up and peace settling in.  Alone we simply cannot manufacture our inner well being.  With you, all things are possible!

Holy, holy, holy
are you,
God Most High.
Thank you
for daily gifts
of your spirit.
Thank you
for invitations
to draw close.

Love, Andrea
