Dear God,

We can always hear you better when we enter into silence, when our hearts are primed to spill and when we are willing to pause in our daily life for time with you.  As we open ourselves anything is possible.  Our minds can be changed, our hearts can be converted and our bodies can find peace.  It is all possible with you.

Yet, we go our whole day and rarely take time to dwell with you.  What is wrong with us?  Our hope is in the next minute with you. Our peace is seconds away.  Even answers to our dilemmas can come today.  When we decide to stop right now, take deep breaths and quiet ourselves, we can enter a new level of living, being and hoping.

You are

the deep answer

to all

our trials

and tribulations,

O God.

For the sake

of our bodies,

minds and souls,

we need

sacred space

and time

to dwell

with you.

Help us remember

the very air

we breathe

is yours.

You are

that close.

Yours, Andrea
