Grace {The Quiet that I am}
by Grace {illustrated}
FIVE MINUTE FRIDAY
!!!
Here again
!!
You know how it begins
!
Lisa Jo
@
gives us the prompt.
We type away for five minutes flat.
No editing.
Free flowing thought.
We link those thoughts to Lisa Jo’s delightful page
joining new & old friends who are doing the same.
This, to me, is one of the greatest joys of the exercise.
Reading the hearts of one another.
Telling them so.
SO
let’s
begin
with this heart
this
prompt
&
my
prayer
that
God’s Glorious Grace & Beauty
comes forth through me.
Right
now
!
QUIET
.
One of my favorite words of all time.
Quiet.
It is in this
quiet
that
God
is
known
.
The God that fills my soul with joy.
WIth love.
WIth peace.
With grace.
With
COMPLETE
KNOWINGNESS
that all that I need is here right now
in this
QUIET
space
that I can come to
ANY
time
.
ANY
place
even when things around me are not so
QUIET
.
It is in this
QUIET
when the fears
of
the
world
the
fears
of
my
thoughts
are racing
attempting to
DIS-quiet
my
soul
that
I must simply say.
QUIET.
The Presence of God.
IS
HERE
RIGHT
NOW
&
As I call upon this
QUIET
this
Presence of God
that
{which attempted to}
dis-quiet
my
soul
falls away into the no-thing-ness
that it is.
I return to Grace.
The
quiet
that
I
am
.
Amen, so true, and so precious.
So true & precious. Like you!
A beautifully true post. Thanks for sharing your 5 minutes with me! Blessings!
So glad you enjoyed the visit. I am going to come to your place right now!
This is fun. I love the visual design of this poetry- awesome!
I am so glad you enjoyed the design, Nicole. Looking forward to visiting your blog now!
Love this post and the illustration.
I clicked on this link because I love pencil sketches so much
{though I cannot sketch a lick}
Loved your line “all i need right now is in this quiet space” it is so true. I know it is, yet I continue to neglect it for things that don’t matter.
Thanks for sharing your talents today. I am loving 5 minute friday; its my first time.
Cheers,
Leah
So glad you enjoyed my link and that you are enjoying the fun found within 5 minute Friday’s. Coming over to your place now!
Yes! sometimes we just have to declare it, don’t we? Put things back into perspective. We’re in the presence of God…the Creator of quieted souls…
beautiful write!
Thank you, Nikki. Beautiful write means so much coming from beautifully written you!
I think I love this the best of all the ones I have read from you so far. It was beautiful. I know that feeling of other thoughts trying to come in and disquiet the mind. I love how you ended this…the very last line especially. Blessings to you!
