The Day brings winds that blow across the fields.
The cold bites my cheeks and chills my bones.
The Lord shows his might.
I rush for cover and shelter.
Too busy to slow down.
But at night...
At night He shows his mercy.
At night all is still.
Really still...and silent.
The wind sleeps.
I step outside.
I look up.
The sky is littered with stars.
I can hear the train whistle a mile down the road.
I stop...and take a deep breath.
All is well. My night is silent and still.
Peace may not be on earth, but in my world it is just that.
peaceful.
Beautiful...Godly...and peaceful.
Thank you Lord for peace. Thank you for giving me that rest in a day filled with angst,busyness and chaos. Thank you for allowing me to sleep tonight knowing that you are the Almighty and you are in control. Thank you for always giving me what I need when I need it most.

Brought tears to my eyes. Brought me back to those still dark nights on the farm, especially around Christmas time, when I'd go out into the biting cold and look up at the millions of stars. It gave me a feeling of peace too (still does).
Thank you Alyson
