Inner Peace - Today's Daily Word

Retreating to the stillness of my soul, I experience absolute peace.

When life seems hectic, it's time for me to redirect my thoughts to the presence of God within me.

To experience God's peace-giving presence, I can either take a break for a few moments in the silence or set aside a longer time for prayer. Or I may go away for a tranquil weekend of spiritual reflection and renewal.

In the stillness of these quiet times, I commune with God. God is my strength and my sustenance, and as I spend these quiet moments realizing my connection with God, peace wells up from within.

Retreating to the stillness of my soul, I experience absolute peace. I am refreshed and revitalized--ready to greet my day and the people around me with a smile on my face and joy in my heart.

"As a deer longs for flowing streams, so my soul longs for you, O God."--Psalm 42:1
