I know what I need to refocus within me! An oldie, but a goodie!<br />@Brenda - Yes, it's all in the listening, the being still; had another epiphany tonight because of it. Treasure your time and space in quiet with the Lord. There is nothing that can compare . . .<br /><br />Blessings to you both!Martha Jane Orlandohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11620499267401065780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009456656795153408.post-71620734984915423362011-10-25T15:54:40.881-07:002011-10-25T15:54:40.881-07:00Strong write and something to hold to.

@Ha...Thanks, Hank and Chris, for stopping by today!<br />@Hank - He'll be glad you were! :)<br />@Chris - I will look for your column from yesterday and be sure to leave you a comment. Yes, the "be still" struck me, too; it is one of my favorite verses. Glad to know I'm not the only one uncomfortable in a crowd!<br /><br />Blessings to you both!Martha Jane Orlandohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11620499267401065780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009456656795153408.post-3002022271663824942011-10-25T06:16:51.635-07:002011-10-25T06:16:51.635-07:00Hi Martha:
The quote that resonates with me after ...Hi Martha:<br />The quote that resonates with me after read this is:<br /><b>Be still and know that I am God</b><br /><br />It's a bit like my column from yesterday Being content with silence. For it is only in the quiet and the solitude that the real God presents himself. He wants to know that He has your undivided attention.<br /><br />I'm not a big fan of crowds either. I'm most comfortable with a small group of friends, 4 or 5 at the most. I will venture out to fairs and festivals though, but the moment I've had enough, I'll leave. That's why I like going by myself or one person in particular who I feel comfortable with. We both have the same radar and we know when one of us has had enough. Typically the other is ready to pack in as well.<br />--<br />ChrisAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009456656795153408.post-90422567967523438912011-10-25T05:32:57.492-07:002011-10-25T05:32:57.492-07:00Wow!
