It's not to often that we get to take a moment of peace and quiet in such a busy world. And I don't mean taking a 5 minute breather from work, motherhood or any of those things that fill our days.
I wasn't planning on writing, but I just realized how peaceful it is right now and I felt like I should share.
Its 11:43 pm. I just got home from work and Barney is still there. Jessie has (finally) left me alone and is sleeping on her bed (yes, our dog has her own little bed). There are no cars going by, just the sounds of frogs and crickets. If you listen really closely, you can even hear the gently sounds of the ocean.
It feels good. It feels refreshing.
After a 12 hour day at work yesterday and a busy night in the restaurant tonight, it's just what I needed.
“Be still, and know that I am God” -Psalm 46:10
I'm sure there are many interpretations of this verse but for me in this moment, its simply what is says. Be still. Enjoy the peacefulness of the moment. God is here beside me. That's all I really need.
