Dear God, I looked toward this day, and wonder what will befall me. What difficulties will I face? What trials will come my way? I anticipate these things with worry.
Lord, let me instead approach the day filled with the wonder of a child. Let me be eager. What do I get to do today?
You have bestowed upon me gift after gift. Why should today be different? You will not abandon your child. Let me walk through this day secure in your love and favor.
Let me act with gratitude for all these gifts that fill my days.
(Letter #966)
