Dear God,

You distracted me, diverted me to truth and love.  When I awoke at 2:00 a.m. worried and fearful about several things that are happening now to people I love, I began to think the worst but your gentle tug called me to the side, like a coach to a player, a teacher to a student, a mother to a child.  "Listen, you can choose a better way."  

A better way, yes, you always offer a better way.  A better way is trusting, hoping and believing in possibility.  That potential lifts the sorry, fearful soul to a higher place.  It inspires us to believe something else, more positive. It pushes worry, anxiety and fear to the side replacing it with hope, peace joy and even gratitude.

Your love

and mercy

is 24/7.

You never sleep.

As long

as your children

are troubled,

you are awake

and ready

to give provision.

Thank you

for this

morning's distraction.

I like

your better way.

Love, Andrea
