Dear God,

There is something about riding above the clouds that speaks of being close to the Holy.  No, I do not believe you live just above the clouds; I believe you live above and below the clouds, beside them and all around them.  I believe you are present in all places and times.

But there is something very special about climbing higher into the skies and looking below.  The view from the sky is vastly different than from below and it is a constant reminder that your view is always deeper and wider than our own.  It is a challenge to acknowledge you know more than we do.  It is a call to stretch our minds and trust the God of our faith during troubling times.  While we are mired in our mess, you are way out front whispering to us to step forward in faith to find the answers and way out of our distress.

I probably need to return to the skies more often as a way to grow my faith more!

Holy God,

thank you

for the lessons

I learn

in the air.

Thank you

for your love

that stays connected

to us

at all times

and all places.

For surely

you are God;

there is none

like you.

Yours, Andrea
