In the morning, I sit still to be with you.

At noon, I seek you in the sunshine.

In the eve, I retire and look for you in the corners.

All the day, Lord, I seek you. Will you reveal yourself?

Could it be you are already here?

(Letter #3,928)

We stand before one another, Lord. You so immense; me so finite.

This forest, anon you will shed the leaves like a garment. Is the same true of the mountains, the stars?

The chill leaves the morning air, and I remove my cloak. Such a small gesture, echoing such a vast love.

All is well already as a stand before you.

(Letter #3,927)

Look how the ground stretches out around me in all directions.

Look how the sky is a dome filled with building light, dawn creeping from the edges up.

Look how the trees sway.

Could I be more alive than here, seated and rooted, feeling the ground, the breeze, the sun?

Could you be more near than in this moment?

Grace has arrived.

(Letter #3,926)
