Ever long for quiet solitude? The best vacation our family ever had was a week at Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, about 8 years ago. For an entire 5 days I layed out on the sandy beach and did absolutely nothing. Just listened to God’s wonderful creation as my eyes were shut and the sun shining down. How relaxing. We need times of quiet. Times of peace. Times of renewal.
This week its renewal time. Spring Break. Debbie and I are heading to a special place to witness and enjoy God's Creation. After placing Craig on an airplane to New York City to see Santhi and Jeff we head for a short period of peace and renewal.
“How shall we really hear, O Lord? So many foolish things to fill our ear...Lead us to prayerful quiet...Cover us in a precious silence...Let solitude come and be our companion...Give us a stillness as the desert where You spent, sometimes, the whole night in prayer...let us come, even without images if that is possible for us...let us revel in the quietude...Let us bow down with all the angels in silence and in awe..."How majestic is Thy name in all creation."
In Jesus Name,
Amen.
(Prayer from Don Brennon)
