Dear God,

A few days ago, bundled up in my winter coat, hat, gloves and boots, I stood outside to allow the bitter, wintry winds to blow upon my face.  Winter, I thought to myself, has come again!

I confess winter is my favorite season!  During the spring, summer and fall, I enjoy everyday beauty but I know the most exquisite beauty will come later when temperatures drop, cold winds blow and snow falls gently upon the ground.  No matter my mood or situation a smile will spread across my face just imagining the wonder of winter.

There is something unique and inspiring about this season of the year!  My soul awakens, my mind is sharpened and my spirit is ready to dance.  For this season is filled with mystery, long shadows and sacred surprise.  The whole of my being knows this is the spirit's holy time when minds, spirits and souls begin to breathe in anew the breath of your mystical spirit.

Alone with my thoughts, hope and peace, I welcomed the season into my being once again!

Thank you,

Wondrous God,

for the 

special gift

of winter.

Thank you

for what 

awaits us.

Thank you

for this

glorious, holy moment.

Love, Andrea
