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)
When you place your focus on God and His teachings, your perspective changes. You develop clarity on what is important and recognize that new opportunities and blessings are part of every day. No matter what challenges you face His Word enables you to live a life filled with joy.
Our Heavenly Father, fill us with faith and prayer and love and joy and eagerness and aliveness and delight. Help us to know Jesus Christ, to believe in Him and to practice His way of life.

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