Fill us at daybreak with your mercy, that all our days may sing for joy. Psalm 90:14
I love that first light of the morning as it cuts into the night sky with a gentle, soft presence, the awakening of a new day. Its still, its quiet and holds all the glory of the moment.
I love the old Irish blessing which says: 'May the blessing of light be on you, light without and light within. May the blessed sunlight shine on you and warm your heart till it glows like a great peat fire, so that the stranger may come and warm himself at it, and also a friend. What a lovely thought at the start of the day as the sunrises.'
May the God of life bless you and keep you today and always. Anne, servant of the Lord.
