LEARN TO REST

We all need short vacations

in life’s fast and maddening race

An interlude of quietness

from the constant, jet-age pace,

So when your day is pressure- packed

and your hours are all too few,

Just close your eyes and meditate

and let God talk to you.

 

For when we keep on pushing

we are foolish, selfish robots

mechanized to fill each day

with unimportant trivia

that makes life more complex

and gives us greater problems to irritate and vex.

 

So when your nervous network

becomes a tangled mess,

Just close your eyes in silent prayer

and ask the Lord to bless.

 

Each thought that you are thinking

each decision you must make,

Every word you speak

and every step you take

for only the grace of God

can you gain self-control,

And only  meditative thoughts

can restore your peace and soul.

  1. You have a very good suggestion, except that I have trouble uploading videos because it needs some tech skills, which I don’t have yet. I still rely on my daughter to help me upload video clips.
