A place of multiple communication. Even communication devices out and behind this picture. Telephone, e-mail, computer files, internet, blogs, radio, books, and on and on... But the most significant form of communication that takes place here is prayer. Prayer and conversation with God. Prayer through reflection on his Word.

Lord, I give you thanks for the day. I give you thanks for new life today. You are God. King of all. All creation sings your praise. You, I worship. You, I adore. You, I love. As I breathe in life this day, fill me with your Spirit. Forgive me the wrongs I have committed towards you and your people. Renew me and restore me to your presence. Provide for all I need this day. Give me your work, give me your joy. I want to serve you out of love. I want to do what you would have me do. I give my life to you. Use me as you see fit. I listen for your voice and will follow. And I give you everlasting thanks and praise for your Son Jesus Christ and all your provisions. Yes, you are God my God! -- Amen
