Living In The Stillness

In the stillness of my soul all is well.

The stillness is when I get quiet, clear my mind an listen to God's direction.

Late on a quiet summer evening, I look at the stars and feel the deep serenity of the night sky. I am serene and still within my soul.  The vast universe is constant, yet ever-changing expanding in perfect order-and so am I.

When I take time to see the stars or the ocean I see god's magnificence.  Only a higher power than man can create with the beauty and the perfection of our world.  While I like my world calm and constant it still changes and becomes cloudy and sometimes it is very clear and peaceful.  All I need do to return to peace is to stop, recenter and seek balance again.  I can start my day over anytime.

At times it may feel as if life is changing to fast. So when I need to reconnect with peace and serenity I go within to the stillness that awaits my awareness.  In the quiet of meditation I feel at one with God.  I feel love and a deep sense of purpose.  I allow myself to imagine all that I can be, knowing that all things needed for my success are provided.  From my place of inner stillness, I begin anew, assured that all is well.

Even when it appears everything around me is falling apart I can find peace by inviting God into my now and get quiet and still.  God never leaves me but I forget to include him in my current actions.  God is in the now.

For God alone my soul waits in silence; from him comes my salvation. Psalm 62:1
