Waves of falling rain pounce firmly on the tin roof giving birth to a calming rhythmic sound. A random crackle from the cast iron stove is a reminder of the warmth being generated from within. Light is slowly invading the overcast dawn illuminating the replenishing shower over the glistening pond. Morning has come and with it the opportunity for discovering new possibilities within God’s gift of grace. As this day unfolds so do the possible challenges that lie ahead. None will be greater, however, than the call to gratitude for each step taken and each breath drawn. As this day moves further from its dawn, the recollection of its peaceful arrival provides substance to whatever will be served on today’s plate. May your day unfold in gratitude and grace as you step into its warm embrace.
