Silence

Spending 20 minutes in silence is something I never do!  My mind is thinking of a hundred different things that need to be done.  But I did it and it is amazing the thoughts and prayers that God brought to me.

Psalm 46:10
"Be still (cease striving, let go, relax) and know that I am God."

I know this verse, but I do what it says so rarely.

So many people came to mind that I could pray for:  friends on the mission field, friends I met in Sierra Leone and Nepal, friends reaching outside themselves to serve in ministry here in Ashland.

Thankfulness overwhelmed me.  God has given me so many good gifts: family, Christian friends, people to serve and a fulfilled life in Jesus and the opportunity to #LIVEWONDERSTRUCK.
