Our comfort, our purpose
our calling in this life
is found in the quietness,
in the stillness,
in the presence of God
Setting time apart
in our room, on the
mountain,
sitting with our Maker,
listening in the silence
for a word from our God
Our purpose, our center,
our service for the
kingdom,
is found in the quietness
within the chaos
in our walk with God
