Just a little more on that idea of resting in peace and safety.
Yesterday I mentioned the baby birds. Today, picture yourself in a place
so peaceful that you cannot imagine wanting to leave. For me, that place
is a very large tree next to a babbling brook in a grassy field. There
is no one else around. No car noise, no factory noise, no people
talking, no polution, no trains, no horns. Nothing to hear but the
sounds of birds, bees and the water flowing peacefully by. I sit up
against the tree simply enjoying the peace and quiet of the beautiful,
late spring day. The birds are singing. The trees are budding and
leafing out. The flowers are spectacular. Such colors. There is a very
light breeze. Sunny day. Temp about 75 degrees.
That picture comes to me straight out of
Psalm 23. (Psalms 23:2, "
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still
waters.") Did I add anything myself…yes, I guess I did. But, that is
how the Lord shows me this picture from that scripture. It gives me the
peace that I need to see myself through some of the things I have had to
face through the years. It is a blessing.
