DAILY READINGS: Exodus 24; Psalm 68; Acts 13:26-52

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: He leadeth me beside the still waters. Psalms 23:2

In our world of tension and turmoil, we need to fi nd still waters, a place of quietness where our souls are refreshed. We know our Lord often retreated to the desert or the Mount of Olives to fi nd solitude. If our Lord felt the necessity of it, surely every believer too, needs a place where noise is shut out and we hear only one voice, where we experience the tranquility of being alone with God. In such stillness we become energized for the steps ahead. Discover it today and resort there oft en. —Edna Dyck

Blessed quietness, holy quietness, what assurance in my soul!
On the stormy sea, He speaks peace to me, how the billows cease to roll!
—Manie P. Ferguson
