Blessed Quiet in the Middle of it All



 
Carthage, Missouri Courthouse at Night

Just last evening, I was feeling overwhelmed by some problems and agitated.  I couldn't even settle down and decide where I wanted to go for dinner for date night with hubby.

We bought a soda and went to sit down at the square in our little town.  The businesses were closed, and there was very little traffic.

It was amazingly quiet, right in the middle of our town.  The weather was perfect, and peace slowly washed over me.

Blessed quiet.  It can be amazingly soothing.

God told us to be still for a very good reason.  We need it.

Blessings,
Laura

    Thank you Lecia, He always does. Sometimes I have to be still and realize it. I'll be over in a few minutes for a visit.

    Blessings,

    I was just reading of Martha so cambered with serving that she missed so much of what Mary was blessed to hear from the Savior and knew that I need to be quiet too.
    Glad you found the still place in your busy life.
    God bless

Thanks for writing me back!

This life only works with Jesus. The next life is a continuation of this one—make sure you spend it with Jesus. Jesus is the only way to God the Father!
