In the Stillness, We Remember and the Chaos Ceases
During my quiet time this morning, I was confronted with the need for stillness. I want to hear the voice of the Lord as I seek Him, but this requires that I be still, step away from busyness, and set aside distractions. The Scripture passage that inspired me was Ezekiel 1:24-25:
“When [the living creatures descending from before the throne] flew, I heard the noise of their wings, like the noise of many waters, like the voice of the Almighty, a tumult like the noise of an army; and when they stood still, they let down their wings. “A voice came from above the firmament that was over their heads; whenever they stood, they let down their wings.”

Bend Down, Lord. I Need to Hear Your Gentle Whisper
Lord, I hear You whisper to me, calling me out of the deep darkness of my thoughts — fearful thoughts, thoughts of uncertainty. Thank You for bending down to listen to my cry. And thank You for loving me enough to draw me into the embrace of Your Spirit, where I find comfort and rest.
You are my sure place in this crazy world — my anchor in the storm. You command the treacherous waves and perilous winds to cease, and they obey Your voice. I’m so grateful.
Hints of Grace Light the Day, Diffusing the Darkness
Out of the darkened chamber of night, the new day dawns. Ebony turns to shades of apricot and lavender, washing over the earth, reflecting God’s glory in the rivers, lakes, puddles, and dew drops — hints of grace light up the morning.
God’s glory cannot be halted — it will always be revealed, no matter the depth of night’s darkness. His light of morning grows and spreads and permeates the earth with the hope of a new day … no matter the deprivation of the soul.
