Pretty Little Prayer


Grace be with you and luck and speed
may all your roads be worth the ride
along the byways, forgotten places
under wide unbroken skies

Peace be with you and all of yours
and may your dreams become fulfilled
  I hope you find some joy and laughter
under wide unbroken skies

I really love this song. It's called, Under Wide, Unbroken Skies, by Andres Parker. This is lame, but I'm pretty sure this was written specifically for me. My favorite place in the whole world is anywhere in the wilderness. I love hiking and hiking farther and farther away from civilization and being surrounded by mountains, trees, rivers and lakes, and the sky. The wilderness (by law) is still the way it was when God made it- and it's completely amazing. No place can make me happier than standing at the top of a ridge looking as far as I can see, and seeing nothing but perfection. Man has created some remarkable things, but come on, nothing we make will ever- ever begin to come close to the awe of a mountain range! The wilderness is my Church.. I thank God for it, often.
