Dear God,

I don’t know where I’m going nor do I know where I will end up. And just because I think I’m following Your will, doesn’t mean I am. But I believe that the desire alone to please You, pleases You. And I hope that at least this desire is evident within me.

Amen.

The crisp, sweet smell of fall reminds me of this time last year; a uniquely sweet period of healing in my life. I am reminded that stillness, presence, and grace are all powerful tools of healing that we should routinely practice, even (and especially) if we think we don’t need to.
