Patience Strong

"If you stand very still in the heart of a wood, you will hear many wonderful things - the snap of a twig and the wind in the trees and the whir of invisble wings. If you stand very still in the turmoil of life and you wait for the voice from within - you'll be lead down the quiet ways of Wisdom and Peace in a mad world of chaos and din. If you stand very still and you hold to your faith, you will get all the help that you ask - you will draw from the Silence the things that you need - Hope and Courage and Strength for your task." - Patience Strong

"For the Lord is the great God, the King above all gods. In his hand are the depths of the earth, and the mountain peaks belong to him. The sea is his, for he made it, and his hands formed the dry land." Psalm 95:3,4

I sat down with God's word today, spent time in prayer and also felt a somewhat strange conviction that we often pay so much attention to what we (as humans) have made and done. It occured to me that we should not merely marvel at the works of mankind, but rather feast our souls on the creation of GOD.
