Imagine a Garden - From More Peace
Imagine a Garden
You are in a garden.
Around you is peace, beauty, fragrance.
God is here.
Safety is here.
Outside the garden walls a storm swirls.
Danger. Darkness. Fear.
But inside the garden walls
butterflies light on morning glories,
golden sunlight filters through trees,
flowers bloom in radiant colors.
The storm is powerless over you here.
You are safe with God.
Come often to this garden.
Rest here in God’s protection.
Nothing can harm you.
Psalm 32:7
You are my hiding place;
you will protect me from trouble
and surround me
with songs of deliverance.
Mother Teresa
We need to find God,
and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness.
God is the friend of silence.
See how nature – trees, flowers, grass –
grows in silence;
see the stars, the moon and the sun,
how they move in silence…
We need silence to be able to touch souls.
