If you know me, you know that still and quiet don't go well with my style. I'm all frenzy and noise most of the day.
But not right now.
It's because I know what's coming; the reward for stillness will surely be delivered, shimmering green as a hummingbird's wing, if I wait in stillness and silence.

Some gifts from God only come in that way.

These hummingbirds are teaching me so much about silence and stillness. I love watching them!

Heather we met awhile back at UM - I rediscovered you through your post to faculty commons. I am glad to read what you're up to. I know what you mean about needing to be still. It is hard, but then again many spiritual disciplines are called disciplines for a reason: they are not easy.
Hello! Nice to hear from you. Good point that they are called "disciplines" for a reason!
