 Dear Jesus,

Teach me to observe your works

To slow down more often

To listen to the silence

Show me how to be still

How to seek your face

Your works are great and many

Perfect and wonderful are Your creations

I stand in awe at Your majesty 

I am amazed at Your love

From the highest mountains

To the deepest oceans

I am taken in by all of Your wonders.

All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost; the old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost.

"What do you want Mary? You want the moon? Just say the word and I'll throw a lasso around it. Hey,that's a good idea. I'll give you the moon Mary."

"I'll take it."

These woods are my haven. It is my place to go when the world becomes too much.

It is the perfect place to forget life and just go read,or write,or just simply think.

When all the troubles of life weigh me down,I can come out here and just pray.

When I am under these trees,they seem to block out the outside world.

It is the perfect amount of peace in these woods. Peaceful serenity.

This is a good place. A place of dreams.

Now back to the real world…...
