Dear God,

The spiritual house was filled with trust and hope as we opened our mouths, hearts and stories.  One by one we shared dark spaces come into the light.  We met them and traveled together to places of question, faith and hope.  We talked about the past and the present as we considered how we might move forward into our future.  Although we walked through darkness we always had a sense that it was the light leading us.

As I really reflect on these last 48 hours, I can see where miracles are unfolding, where truths are being uncovered and where faith is enlarging.  It is awesome and mind-blowing at the same time.  But always, always we know that we know that we know you are present as the power moving, embracing and nudging us forward.  Thanks be to God!

All praise

to you,

Most Holy and Wondrous God.

Thank you

for your

miracle-making power.

Thank you

for the gift

of shifting sand,

stormy seas

and radiant sunshine,

all that transforms

human life.

Yours, Andrea
