Just nine days
into this New Year 2020.
How am I doing?
How are you doing?
It's been a full nine days -
for me: prep for our family home
for a January Christmas this year ...
a funeral, a gathering of cousins,
a movie with a friend, sharing my
heart and my care with another
friend suffering with ALS, sending
cards to family (thank you's,
a birthday, an anniversary), easing
back into our last semester as
full-time staff with Cru.
It's been a full nine days so far.
And I'm thankful for gentle reminders ...
In the midst of the activity,
in the joys and also the challenges;
He calls us to quiet our hearts,
He calls us to "Be Still".
"Be still and know that I am God."
(Psalm 46:10 ESV)
"In quietness and trust is your strength."
(Isaiah 30:15 NIV)
"You're my place of quiet retreat;
I wait for your Word to renew me."
(Psalm 119:114 MSG)
"Let all that I am wait quietly before God."
(Psalm 62:5a NLT)
