Rest In The Lord

“REST IN THE LORD; WAIT PATIENTLY FOR HIM.” In Hebrew, “be silent, and let him mould thee.” Keep still, and he will mould thee to the right shape. – Martin Luther

 

Suzy and I had a wonderful trip to DC but there was no time for a morning meditation, and after another day of driving I needed to listen to Luther. (Not Lex Luther, but Martin.) This morning’s meditation needed to follow the old physical workout maxim – after a break in one’s routine, go back to the basics.

 

Communion of God not only requires the silencing of the tongue and the relaxing of the body, but entails the cleansing of your mind of thoughts, as well. The basic meditation requires a concentration of the soul and a waiting for God’s nourishment to be given. If we do this, we will never go away empty.
