Coolness permeates the air as night succumbs to dawn on this late fall morning. The chill is a reminder that winter is lurking nearby. Cozy bedding envelopes as a fetal reminder of a warm and safe space that whispers its invitation to remain. Thoughts of the day ahead are quickly laid aside as the mind goes instead to a place of conversation with the Provider of the life giving dawn upon us. Prayers of thankfulness emerge as we ponder the shear wonder of being alive in the Maker’s presence. Impulses to begin focus on the day’s agenda are captured and handed over to being in the presence of gratitude that the day is unfolding and bringing with it the opportunities to honor the Creator in all that is done. We are reminded that even the work we will engage during the day provides a means to honor our God if only in thankfulness for the means to engage. As the day unfolds may it do so in the light of gratitude shone through the prism of grace that clarifies all that we see!
