A Good Morning Kiss











I am standing on the shores of Lake Erie in the wee hours of the morning. A vivid orange sunrise has begun creeping over the expanse of the waters. It is quiet except for the occasional sing song of  birds as they awaken to a new day. The aroma of water and sand swirls around me in the gentle morning breeze and I smile, enjoying it's sweetness.
Yes, this promises to be a good day....a "God day".  I whisper a silent thank you to My Lord as I sleepily stretch my arms up to the heavens in a gesture of surrender.  Just when I think the moment could not be more perfect, I lift my eyes and behold a breathtaking sight...a simple cross spread majestically across the blazing sky.  Stretching high above me, yet seeming to bend down from the heavens... a good morning kiss from my loving Savior!
