Psalm 23

"he leads me beside waters of rest,
he restores my life"
Psalm 23:2b-3a (alternate reading)


My life in many ways over the past ten years has been this first picture. Life hurdling at me as fast as I could stand it. Not that it was bad, in fact most of the time I quiet enjoyed the fast pace.

Everyone once in awhile though I would feel the need to slow down and so would do some things that would help me at least look calm on the outside even though life continued to flow fast and hard and while rewarding / renewing not really peaceful.

It is time now to allow the deep stillness of God's comfort to surround me. It isn't something that will come easy or necessarily be "fun" but I know that it is time and that my life waits to be renewed.
