Dear God,

I gazed outside my airplane window as we flew in the skies toward the Midwest.  A bright, yellow sun, white, fluffy clouds and robin egg blue skies drew my eyes away from my novel.  Although I know you are no closer to humans in the sky than you are on the earth, still my faith is stirred, my imagination piqued and my love is deepened as I travel and look over the cosmos below.

How different the view is from above!  Perspectives change while looking across the wide expanse below.  Even flying in a plane zipping along at hundred of miles per hour is surreal.  Yet, all I can think about in my gazing is your creative and loving hand.  After all, it is all your creative handiwork. Creation is really its best when we can view it through your eyes and express our gratitude.

Holy God,

thank you

for the

exquisite views

from the air.

Thank you

for the

gentle whisperings

in an

airplane cabin.

Thank you

for the

wondrous gifts

of today.

Yours, Andrea
