My Quiet Time…
I have grown to learn that ‘my quiet time’ is critical…
Critical to balance in my life
Critical to hearing my own thoughts…
Praying without distraction and…
Receiving some Divine guidance…
On what or what not to do…if and when
There are so many problems that I’ve resolved…
During ‘my quiet time’
There are so many things that were forgotten…
And then remembered…
During ‘my quiet time’
There is so much peace…
Beyond my own understanding…gained…
During ‘my quiet time'
The best time to just be present in ‘my quiet time’…
Is early in the morning…before…the demands of the world cloud my thoughts
For some…it’s easy to choose ‘your quiet time’ when you don’t share your space
For others…you may have to create it or schedule it…as a household thing
When my children were younger…we had a quiet room…
A get away…right in the middle of busy
Sometimes we need to turn something off…
So that we can hear our own thoughts
Some of us may not want to be left alone with our thoughts…
So we surround ourselves with the noise…
Of people, places and things…constantly
Healing comes…during ‘our quiet time’
Wisdom comes…during ‘our quiet time’
Divine instruction comes…during ‘our quiet time’
We get to know who we really are…during ‘our quiet time’
We learn how to become a better version of ourselves…during ‘our quiet time'
We find our purpose…during ‘our quiet time’
It doesn’t take much daily dedicated time…
But it does take consistency…
For ‘our quiet time’ to make a difference…
In our lives and those connected to us
Shhhh…for just a few minutes…every day…
Calm your spirit…protect ‘your quiet time’…
It’s critical to our balance of life…
And peace…within us…and around us
