Prayer for today

God makes himself known in so many ways,

In the starshine of the night

In the sunshine of days

In the voice of a friend when you pick up the phone

In a letter that comes when you’re feeling alone .

In the smile of a stranger  you  happen to meet,

In a cheery “Hello” that you hear on the street

In the peace of a church

In the depth of a prayer,

God makes himself known to us ,

He’s everywhere
