Advice #47
ADVICE DAD NEVER GAVE YOU
Ralph Sorter
Do you hear the hush of the night…the silent night? It’s hard to when you are running madly to every party, searching for that perfect gift, and wondering how long it will take to recover financially.
There’s solace in quietness. It’s hard to find it when there are a million things running through your mind. In stillness God hushes our rampant worries.
There’s no need to fret when you know you are held close to the Father’s heart. He’s embracing you right now. Don’t think so? Close your eyes and feel His arms…they are there.
Not one burden has ever been budged by careless striving and worry. Peaceful solitude is where the soul discovers He is with us and tunes our ears to hear His voice…the gentle whisper that can be easily covered up with frantic activity.
His gentle wind woos you to that place of quiet strength – it’s resting in His all-sufficient ability to administrate your chaotic life. Take time to hear the single snowflake glide through the air. Let His unique artistry of a frozen drop of water kiss your cheek and let you know He has a special ending to your long day.
Just remember, while nature was quietly dormant, God was sending a precious baby to be the answer to your troubled soul and anxious prayers. Isn’t it time you rested so He can renew your soul…reignite the passion for living? He’s waiting for you to whisper His name…Emanuel.
Be still my soul…the Lord is by my side…bear patiently the cross of grief or pain. None, not even one is beyond the gentle stroke of His hand to brush it away. Be still my soul.
