Walking in the Fog

There's something other-worldly about walking through fog - a cloud that's come to earth.  It wraps itself around familiar objects, softening them, and muffles sharp sounds.  In its quiet, gentle way, the fog transforms the world around us.  The fog not only surrounds us on the outside, but is taken in with every breath, becoming a part of us.

As I took my morning walk enveloped in fog, I thought about how God's love surrounds us.  Like the fog, this Love transforms us, quietly and gently, ready to be taken in with each breath; offering a level of intimacy beyond our imaginings.

Prayer:
Loving God, remind me of your Presence, surrounding me always.  Move me to breathe deeply, so that I may be transformed by your Love and carry it forth into the world.   Amen
