Dear God,

In a 24-hour period we had warm sunshine, 50-mile-an hour wind gusts and wintry sleet, rain and snow.  It was like winter chaos; yet, when we pause to consider the creative spirit at work, we see your hand.  Although we may complain or sometimes awe at what we see, still we know we are looking into the face of the holy creator.

All that is to say, every day you reveal yourself through nature.  When the first snowflakes fall from an early winter sky or we catch sight of spring in those first buds on trees, bushes and flowers, we can't help but know we are meeting the creator once again.  Summer flowers, flying geese in the sky or magnificent autumn leaves all cry out, "Praise to my creator, today and every tomorrow!"

Thank you,

Blessed God,

for the gift

of nature

for her beauty,

her messages

and her inspiration.

Thank you

for every season

and how

each and all

reveal you

to us.

Glory to you!

Yours, Andrea
