Isaiah 30:15:
For thus saith the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel; In returning and rest shall ye be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength: and ye would not.
In Quietness
In quietness let me abide
When light is growing dim,
From earth's distractions would I hide,
Shut in alone with Him.
***
In perfect peace then let me turn
My thoughts to heights above,
And there anew life's lessons learn
From Him who speaks in love.
***
There, while I in His presence wait,
He makes the storm a calm,
And on my heart so desolate
He pours His healing balm.
***
He gives me grace to persevere
New courage to go on;
His love dispel the clouds of fear
And fills my heart with song.
~ Grace E Troy
The above poem was found on the back of a magazine I get every 4 months called COUNSEL - it spoke to me - I looked up the verse it referenced in Isaiah as well. There is much wisdom and comfort in this authors words, the Lord has given or did give her a gift and I am thankful she shared it. Hope you are blessed by it as well ♥
