Wait For The Lord

Where is stillness in your life?
The quiet space, to listen and receive?
Busyness doesn’t save us.
“In repentance and rest is your salvation.”
Let go, let God.
Mary chose the better portion.

Struggles and trouble fly upward like sparks –
this is what we’re born to.
“In quietness and trust is your strength.”
Resilience in trial flows from quiet trust.
Lean into that trust
And not your understanding.

Wait for the Lord – His dawn will come.
I will Wait for the Lord:
keep watch in quietness,
take heart from trust in Him.

(“In repentance and rest is your salvation;
in quietness and trust is your strength.”
Isaiah 30:15 NIVUK)
