Dear God,

This morning as I tuned in to the worship service by zoom, I sang the hymns and listened to the moving sermon of the preacher.  Inside my spirit I felt close to you.  It was then I looked around my dirty, dusty kitchen that I had not been able to clean due to the torn bicep muscle in my arm.  Although I don't like a dirty house, I realized that participating in the worship service turned my less-than-clean kitchen into a sanctuary.  

Your mystical power challenges the "what is" into something more.  It changes ordinary into extraordinary, things despairing into hope and loss into gain.  If a simple online worship service can do what it did for me this morning, then I can only imagine what great and glorious things you can do in other situations.

Almighty and Tender God,

thank you

for the 

morning blessing.

Thank you

for insights

that challenge

and inspire.

Thank you

for your nearness,

always loving

and constant.

Yours, Andrea
