Dear God,

Good morning! Thank you so much for such a beautiful day. The frozen grass outside today is a hint that winter is on its way. It will always amaze me how you've placed this world so delicately in the center of your hand, and that you know exactly how to shift the seasons. You truly are beautiful, Father.

I've always known how desperately I need you, but it's been on my mind so strongly these days how true that statement really is. Lord, I'm recommitting my life to You this morning. I'm giving you my entire life, each and every part of it. No longer will I be excluding You from small fractions of myself. I am NOT going to let myself put anything before You. I want You to be the Lord of my life, not just a friend I turn to for advice every so often. I don't want to disappoint You, God. I want to get to Heaven and stand in awe of You as you smile at me and say "Well done, good and faithful servant." Thank You for loving me unconditionally, and thank You for letting me get to know You and who You really are more and more each day.

I love you.

Your Child,
Alyssa.
