The Quiet Life
Make it your goal to live a quiet life, minding your own business and working with your hands, just as we instructed you before.—1 Thessalonians 4:11 (NLT)
The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives forever.—1 John 2:17 (NIV)
Make your time with God count. Don’t miss the deep meanings and direct messages from God that are in His Word by rushing through Scripture. Instead, slow your pace. Stop and take a moment when something touches your heart. Let it sink in and become part of you.
Dear Lord, Your Word is a gift to savor, to fully experience so that it can do its work in me—transform my spirit.
Make it your goal to live a quiet life, minding your own business and working with your hands, just as we instructed you before.—1 Thessalonians 4:11 (NLT)

Ears that hear and eyes that see—the Lord has made them both.—Proverbs 20:12 (NIV)
