Devotional 3-12-14

Today’s devotional is a special request - from me to you, for this Lenten season.    

How long has it been since you took the time to sit down and just be silent and listen? You, by yourself, with nothing turned on – no TV, no music, no computer, no phone.  Total silence.   How hard is that for you to do?

In a world that is so full of every kind of noise possible, living in a society that never stops and demands constant motion, finding the time to just sit and be still is a tall order for most of us.  I’ve got too much to do.  There’s not enough time to get it all done. I’ve just got to keep on moving.

When you finish reading this devotional, please stop for just five minutes. Sit and be quiet.  God speaks to us in so many ways all the time, but to feel the presence of God and to hear that still small voice of God is so important and so nurturing.

Remember.  “Be still, and know that I am God.”  Psalm 46:10
