I know, God, that you are only

as far away as my next breath.

That you are always there, waiting, in

the stillness inside,

if only I would stop and find you.

Thank you for the reminders you put

in our lives.

To slow down.

To breathe. To wonder.

Thank you for the ocean,

that magnificent display

of your glory

And your power.

Thank you for the sun

that warms our skin,

for the breeze that

makes our hair dance,

for the flowers that

not only delight our eyes

but tickle our noses

with their delicious scent.

You have made our world

a wonder of beauty.

Thank you.

Thank you for reminders,

for stillness,

for grace.
