My Father Is Pleased with You

This morning as I watched the eastern sky brighten, I experienced the fruit of years of greeting every dawn in contemplative prayer. On bright mornings like today, the warm glow readily speaks to me of God's affection and approval. But even on mornings when the sky is leaden, the air thick with moisture and the temperature hovers in the 30s, my time on my stool facing east is suffused with an awareness of the smile of God.

Today, may your Sabbath-keeping be similarly lighted with a sweet awareness of God's kindly regard.
