“Learning how to be still, to really be still and let life happen – that stillness becomes a radiance.” – Morgan Freeman

Wisdom from Scripture:

Psalm 62: 5-8

“For God alone my soul waits in silence, for my hope is from him. He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall not be shaken. On God rests my deliverance and my honor; my mighty rock, my refuge is in God. Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your heart before him; God is a refuge for us.” 

Ephesians 3: 14-21

“For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name. I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.

Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever. Amen.”

Prayer:

God of Silence and God of creation’s many voices: center us in you and allow us to connect with you, to trust you on the deepest level. Transform us from a place not controlled by our egos, but enchanted by your spirit. Calm the tempest of emotions and lead us into the depth of being. 

Amen.
