Silence

The yard this spring with 21 lilac bushes in bloom.

Beautiful flowers Kristen sent me.


Tonight's sky.

Sometimes life gets hectic, hurried and noisy, but I treasure my quiet times of meditation, reflecting or enjoying God's creations that surround me. These times are a renewal for me just as sleep is. I have been thinking lately of a quote of Mother Teresa's -

God is the friend of silence.

Trees, flowers, grass grow in silence.

See the stars, moon, and sun, how they move in silence.
