Dear God,

This morning I was taken by the words of the psalmist, "O God you are my joy and my delight."  I repeated them over again.  My heart was warmed and my soul felt blessed.  I too whispered the words of my own delight in you, my Savior and Lord.

Only one who has felt your awesome grace, your healing power or your gentle kindness can utter these words with confidence.  Not, of course, because we are special or have done anything good to be so blessed but just because you bless us daily.  As we recognize these generous acts, we can acknowledge you as the giver of the gifts.

Thank you,

Holy God,

for every gift

of life.

Thank you

for the psalmist,

the teacher.

Thank you

for his witness

this morning.

Love, Andrea
