Sweet Sabbath

 

"Solitude shows us the way to let our behavior be shaped not by the compulsions of the world but by our new mind, the mind of Christ.  Silence prevents us from being suffocated by our wordy world and teaches us to speak the Word of God."  ~Henry Nouwen

 

We're enjoying a still and quiet Sabbath morning here after an early church service this morning.  Sarah prepared the dough for a Swedish Tea Ring last night, so we could enjoy a hassle free brunch this morning.  And the fun plates from a friend make our silence and solitude even more special as we each sneak away to listen to God's still small voice...
