Oh Lord, you have brought me through another year of this journey. You have protected my soul and have made me whole in moments when I was so very broken. Father, You have carried me through dark hours and run with me through happy moments. Your love have washed over me again and again and Your grace has unfailingly sustained me.

Spirit, you have washed over me so thickly this year that I have not even been able to stand at times. You have filled my soul to the fullest and have given me strength when I had nothing left. You are my lifeblood. Oh, beautiful Godhead, I am in awe of the power, glory and grace you bestow on me. I am your humble servant. With love, Amen.

However, if I think of the things in my life that are the most evident of God's work, it would be the stories of the different journeys God and I have been on together. The story of how I got my current job and the multitude of "God things" that surrounded that moment. The story of a college friend telling me, "...
