Expressing Peace. Thank You. 57.

Thank you

Thank You

Thank you for being part of this Expressing Peace effort. Thank you for allowing me to join my discovery of so many causes of peace with my delight in praying.

The connection between peace and praying came through loud and clear today. All day today.

Thank you, Everlasting Presence, for the urgings to say simple ‘thank you’s’ so many times today.

For reasons I don’t need to fathom, I felt more often today than any day before, my gratitude for this or that or something else.

Sweet Spirit, as my friend ends his unemployment and so many months of emotional unease, he and I are thankful that the condition is perfect for him to return to work.

The more those prayerful moments happened, the more I was aware of things around me, so often overlooked.

These tools and gadgets that make my work easier, more enjoyable, I do appreciate. That they let me do what I do and more, I thank you, Good Friend.

When my mind wandered from tasks at hand to someone far away in miles or years, the thank you prayers spilled over.

How pleased I am that have shared and loved and spent good times with so many throughout my life. The joy I feel is present though the experiences are past. Thank you, GOD.

Moments walking outside seemed fuller, brighter, richer with all the beauty and pleasure of nature. The gratitude was stronger, deeper, and pronounced.

Thank you, Architect,  for all that is of nature. And thank you for the specific parts that catch my eye: white clouds and blue sky, the soaring hawk. The parts that touch my ear: crickets’ scratch and birds’ call. Even the fragrance that my nose notices: mowed grass.

Loving Peace, the many ways you let us know peace
bring us such awareness of your Peace.
The prayers we share with you are conscious instances
of that Peace realized in our minds and in our hearts.
And so it is. Amen. Amen.

Enjoy Peace. Express Peace.
