Dear God,

Sometimes when my back is hurting or I can't get to sleep in my bed, I will sleep in a sleeping bag on the floor.  I don't know why that works; it just does.

Early this morning when it was still dark, from my sleeping bag, I looked up into the sky beyond the tree branches.  There three different stars shined bright.  As I lay there, I watched them sparkle for several minutes.  I felt very close to you gazing at the light in the darkness.

I wonder if that was what it was like on the first Christmas morning.

Holy are you,
God Almighty.
Thank you
for holy moments
as I lay
on the floor 
looking up
at you.
Thank you
for the inspiration
and blessing.

Love, Andrea
