Almighty God,

In this quiet hour I seek communion with Thee.  From the fret and fever of the day's business, from the world's discordant noises, from the praise and blame of men, from the confused thoughts and vain imaginations of my own heart, I would now turn aside and seek the quietness of Thy presence.  All day long I have toiled and striven: But now, in the stillness of heart and the clear light of Thine eternity, I would ponder the pattern my life is weaving.

The sun is shinning here in Vancouver today - it's beautiful, but not so great for the much needed olympic mountains.... Hope the sun is shinning in your neck of the woods too.
