choose quietness

Choose quietness---I do. 
"A place of quiet rest. A place of comfort sweet. A place of full release." (Near to the Heart of God)
How much easier to choose quietness when the Lord sends enough snow to "white out" a busy agenda. 
"Snow" angel to beckon me----"Nearer my God to Thee."
"Schedules. Commitments. So much to do, so little time" is how LaGard Smith puts it in Meeting God in Quiet Places.

I choose to linger, to tarry and to move into God's Presence. Usually that results in prayer---a sort of "tarry one for another" moment. (1 Corinthians 11:33)
I'm not sure where this tarrying will lead, I just know that today..........
I choose quietness near to the heart of God.
