Calm our hearts

How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet
of the messeger who announces
peace, who brings good news, who
announces salvation, who says to Zion,
"Your God reigns."
Isaiah 52:7

Heavenly Father, our diversions seem great.  Not many of us can remember when the insurmountable demands started piling up, and we have a hard time seeing the end.  Allow us to take a moment from our hectic days to close our eyes and feel your peace.  We ask you to lead us.  Amen

How is it that the lonesome echo of a loon across a deep, blue lake at dusk restores such a sense of inner calmness to our spirit?  Maybe it's because we slow down long enough to see our reflection and remember who created each of us.
