But I think you're very wise to find peace in the quiet places, even if they seem small, like a walk for the mail. We're always learning as we go and I'm so grateful for that. My word for 2014 is "quiet" - sometimes that's a moment around me, sometimes it's a quiet heart when all else seems wild. Well blessings to you, friend! So dear to find new ways to rest in Him. He is so faithful!Shawnelle Eliasenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00640827764109123647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7165957406093577147.post-44255197091599890812014-02-02T15:28:31.860-06:002014-02-02T15:28:31.860-06:00Aww teary eyed.
