{keep it down} now.




Today,
find a little quiet. 

Maybe your days 
are like mine 
sometimes…
loud. 
There are deadlines looming
and voices speaking
and sometimes…
most times
it can all just be too loud.
Too busy.
Too much.
Too…
everything.

Maybe today,
you and I 
just need 
a little
quiet. 

Surprising things happen
when it's quiet.
When we are quiet.  
We can hear the small noises. 
The chirps and the whirs
and the small creaks and such.
The beating of your heart.
The breath that comes in,
and the breath that goes out.

And maybe in the quiet,
we can hear God more clearly. 
We can hear His voice leading us.
And perhaps, 
in the middle of the quiet, 
we can see Him better. 
We see Him move and weave and craft 
the small and the beautiful 
throughout the moments of our days.
Without the fog and haze 
of the noise,
we can hear Him and see Him
and maybe even 
feel Him
more.

And more of God 
sounds really good 
to me.


For God alone, 
O my soul, 
wait in silence, 
for my hope is from him.
~Psalm 62:5


Many blessings for your Friday,
Deni
