*Note the attached sermon audio is actually 23.25 mins. (not the 45+ indicated on the play bar!) Be not afraid. It’s easy to feel as if we’re standing two inches away from a huge canvas that’s noisy and crowded and changing with every microsecond. It’s only by stepping farther back and standing still that we can begin to see what that canvas (which is our life) really means, and to take in the larger picture. – Pico Iyer, The Art of Stillness ** “Whenever there is stillness there is the still small voice, God's speaking from the whirlwind, nature's old song, and dance...” ― Annie Dillard, Teaching a Stone to Talk: Scripture reading: Mark 4:35-41 |
