Dear God,
My life has gone from dull to colorful ever since you stepped into the doorway of my life. It is not because of the love of any man, but by your grace that my life has become a rainbow of colors beaming in on a rainy day.
As the "question girl", I have to ask one thing. I have been noticing that my life is swinging closer to adulthood. My responsibilities are getting more demanding, new friendships are being formed....could it be that I'm really growing up?
I'm honored that I get to be a part of your work, God. But truthfully, I'm just tired. I long for the days of old, to lay by your side, wrapped in a white blanket of peace.
How do I find rest, even in the busyness of each day? Where can I go to escape with you; where is our "eden"? Where are you calling my name in the garden and the noise of the world is just drowing you out? Guide me into a place of rest. Allow me to search, continue to pull, stretch my every being, so that I may look and behave more and more like you.
Your daughter,
Alexandra
