‘Father, I thank you for the gift of life this day. And in having slept through the night to awaken and watch the sunrise that now barely lights the sky. In the bare contrast between the waters and the eternal universe, I can feel your presence, Father, in the Holy Spirit now moving across the earth. To produce life and light within souls, to awaken the hearts of your children so that they may receive peace through you this day.’

“My son,” our Father says, “I love you. And I am most pleased that you have come to me and that you have allowed me to awaken your heart in love. That I may draw you closer to my heart this day.

Offer all of you, offer yourself as a sacrifice and joy to my love and my holy will.

Yes, my son, come to me and in my glory, you shall receive the blessings that shall glorify your soul.”

‘Father, I bless you. May you be blessed for all that you have fulfilled for your children in your love, where we can see your face in the beauty of creation, in the beauty of all that you created, which is life.’
