QUIET IN THE BIG CITY
We have
cast this page in a "brown study" for a reason. Along with the noise
of modern life, I find that
we often are offended by bright lights. They are everywhere. Darkness is not
safe because wicked
men hide in the dark. So, sometimes it is nice to be alone in the dark, IF
it is safe.
I have tried to make this page safe, quiet, and comfortable.

Psalm
40:1 I waited patiently for the LORD;
and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.
2 He brought me up also out of an horrible
pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet
upon a rock, and established my goings.
3 And he hath put a new song in my mouth,
even praise unto our God: many shall see it,
and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.
4 Blessed is that man that maketh the LORD
his trust, and respecteth not the proud,
nor such as turn aside to lies.
5 Many, O LORD my God, are thy wonderful
works which thou hast done, and thy
thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot
be reckoned up in order unto thee: if I would
declare and speak of them, they are more
than can be numbered.
No one recognized
this quiet place. It is a Promenade along the Hudson River in Brooklyn, NYC.
All I can tell you is that it is about two blocks west of Henry Street. One
of our readers
finds peace and quiet here, especially in the winter. This shows that the
hungry
soul will be satisfied if that soul is focused on the Lord Jesus Christ.
Psalm
107:8 Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness,
and for his wonderful works to the children of men! 9 For he satisfieth the
longing soul,
and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.
Our God
is standing right there next to you. Are you hungry, lonely, or troubled?
Just turn and talk to him. He already knows what you need. He is living in
the
future-- your future. Whatever he just allowed to happen to you today, he
knew
what the end would be, and he planned for you to bear it and get the victory.
Go on, just tell him. Ask HIM the tough question, and see what he says.
Psalm
107:2 Let the redeemed of the LORD say so,
whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy;
I would be delighted to hear you say
so by e-mail.
One sentence--
That you believe that Jesus Christ is the ONLY Way.

QUIET
PLACE WITH GOD
Our readers tell us where they talk to God.
Hi Steve,
My quiet place I use now is in the cab of my pickup.
In the mornings that I arrive work in my pickup and I usually stay in for a few minutes of quiet time,
read my Bible, or just plain thinking about something.
I have five young kids (ages 8 months to 9 years old) so you know how crazy that gets :-).
During the summer when it is not raining I use my motorbike to commute
so I have to find somewhere else for a quiet place. Oh well... Take care and God bless,Richard
================
I love to sit and read in my husbands recliner.
It's the most comfortable spot in the house. Couple that with a cup of coffee and
quiet peaceful morning hours ( before children are awake! ) and its the perfect spot.[ Editor: Jamie's husband is in Iraq with the US Marines ]
================
My favorite quiet place is sitting next to my window. From there I can watch the squirls playing, eating, sunnying themselves on the shed roof, and burying their nuts. I've seen a rabbit eating clover and a rat jumping or crawling through the grass. I've seen numerous bugs and butterflies. I've seen a mother mocking bird stuffing her baby with wild strawberries, and wren chicks learning to look for their own bugs. I've seen birds bathing in the lawn mower cover after there'd been rain. I can see the beautiful trees and blue sky and clouds. The violets color the grass with white and purple in early spring, and the bleeding heart blooms below in early summer.
I've watched tiny, gray-blue gnat catchers gleaning bugs on the cedar tree, and seen the wood pile grow and dwindle. I've watched a robin listening for worms and seen cardinals and blue jays gathering food along the hedge. This year I had a beautiful display of morning glories as well. It is a sweet place to read my Bible and pray, write or just think and ponder. I don't need a window on the world. God has given me a window on His creation.
Isaiah 25:9 And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, and he will save us: this is the LORD; we have waited for him, we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation.
