Breathe in God's Peace

Episode Summary

Sometimes it’s good to just be still and breathe in God’s peace.

Episode Transcription

Hi, I’m Joni Eareckson Tada. And with today’s busy world, it seems as if we’re almost trying to find any and every way to pack our schedules. We take double shifts, we wait at the check-out line looking at posts, emails or tweets on our smart phones; we take on extra responsibilities at church; we turn on the TV for background noise. But sometimes—wouldn’t it be nice to just have a time of quiet? Of stillness? The Psalms are full of such reminders, “Be still and know that I am God” and “Wait for the Lord.” I mean, when was the last time you savored a cup of coffee without your tablet in your hands? Or when did you last enjoy a beautiful sunset not while sitting through traffic? Or a homemade meal without the TV? Join me, would you, today, in taking time today to simply be still, and to wait patiently, and to breathe in God's peace for those who are willing to wait and be still.
