Be Still

.”My longings are best met when, in prayer, I simply let my heart beat in time with the Lord’s.”

-Joni Eareckson Tada.

Psalm 46:10a says, “Be still and know that I am God.” In the wisdom of the psalmist, we learn to quietly approach God, listen to him, and allow our heartbeats to beat in rhythm with the Almighty.

Father, thank you for those times of stillness when you bend down and touch my heart and draw me closer to you.

After raising a family and then teaching for over 20 years, I retired from full-time work. Now I spend time with family, tap dance, take long walks in nature, read, and write. I have published two stories in Chicken Soup for the Soul books and over a dozen devotions. My current goal is to publish a book of meditations over the gospels and to share my devotional writing on my blog. I hope you enjoy and are inspired.
