Life is not about how much I get done today. Life is how well I allow myself to be quiet and experience God throughout this day. Life is also consistently loving other people in my words and actions. The simplicity of life is to be quiet and loving and let God’s POWER AND LOVE TAKE OVER. I need much quiet time each day to deepen this amazing, uplifting, and profound experience of God. It is never what happens to me. It is how I discover and experience God in what happens to me in each moment of my life. MY SOUL CLINGS TO YOU. YOUR RIGHT HAND HOLDS ME FAST. INTO YOUR HANDS, O LORD, I COMMEND MY SPIRIT.

Each moment is meant to be a moment to experience God. Each moment is a moment to be kind and loving toward others. And each moment is a reminder that life on this earth is so brief. Every time I get in the car and drive, I seem to pass a cemetery. I  thank God for my life, which is an amazing journey into the peaceful and uplifting PRESENCE OF GOD. And it will last forever. I WILL CREATE A NEW HEART WITHIN  YOU AND BREATH INTO  YOU A NEW SPIRIT.

Meditation, each morning, stops me and slows me down so I can listen to God speak words of  LOVE and COMPASSION to me. In becoming quiet with God, I will discover the basic principle of a peaceful life: to be quiet and receptive to God’s Presence and be kind, loving, and generous to everyone on this sacred day. My life must be filled with God and with love for everyone. Then, I will have an uplifted life with a consistent and continual EXPERIENCE OF GOD. My soul is always at rest as I turn toward this Loving God in each moment of this day. GIVE ME AGAIN THE JOY OF YOUR HELP. WITH A SPIRIT OF FERVOR, SUSTAIN ME.
