If my spirit is not still
What I "hear" is nearly nil.
My "vision" isn't quite as clear,
And I don't see what's very near.
Distraction clouds ability
To "rest" and have tranquillity.
When I have the peace of God
My steps with "quietness" are shod.
Before I make important choice
I listen for the Spirit's voice.
He is faithful when I pray.
He will help me "find my way".
"Show me thy ways, O Lord; teach me thy paths. Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day."
Psalm 25:4-5 KJV
