Quiet hours

“The greatest events aren’t the loudest, but the most quiet hours.” ~ Unknown

A good quote I recently read. It would make for a great inspirational poster in a classroom…

This is so true though. Some of my favorite moments have been in the quietest hours…
whether I was standing on the top of a mountain over looking a valley, out in the middle
of a field somewhere in the country, lying on my back admiring the blanket of stars in
the sky, sitting in a 2 man boat alone in the middle of a lake, perched on skis ready to
dominate the slope just admiring the silence of the pristine powder, or even sitting with
someone and not having to say a word.

So often I find myself trying to fill the silence with music on my iPod, car radio, tv,
or to-do lists in my head that I forget to slow down and enjoy the quiet hours and
moments that I am given by God to help rejuvenate me.
