Meanwhile...

"The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in Him, and I am helped; Therefore my heart greatly rejoices, and with my song I will praise Him." Psalm 28:7

The wind has been rushing around frantically all day. The phonebook that got dropped outside our front door was making the best windblown sounds you can imagine - so I left it there. I wish I could make sounds like that...or maybe I just want to crawl into the middle of that sound. Kind of like standing in a storm with the wind driving against you...swirling around your ear drums. It's not chaotic though. It's all in order. I'm glad that I serve a God of order. I'm glad he makes sounds like this. The "be still and know that I am God" sounds.



Drop Thy still dews of quietness,
Till all our strivings cease;
Take from our souls the strain and stress,
And let our ordered lives confess
The beauty of Thy peace.
