Too Peaceful?

I went for a walk after work on Friday, not one of my marathonish walks, but just down to the park by my home, so I could sit by the creek and be at peace for a bit. There's this one section, where there is a large rock to sit on by the water, that was the spot in my head that seemed the best place to stop. So I walked around to this "perfect" spot and sat down and listened. All I could hear was my own thoughts, but even through them God was speaking to me. The water was relatively deep here, maybe a foot and a half feet deep, and I could see little fish swimming. My problem was it was too peaceful, things were quietly moving by without drawing attention to themselves. I forced myself to sit there for 5 minutes miserably, before moving on to another spot.

The second spot is what my soul needed, a bit rockier, but the creek was alive and speaking out. This is where I found my peace, and The Spirit spoke to my heart. He said, that the first spot is where I have been, quiet, too quiet, floating by without notice. This new spot is where I'm headed. It's noisy, rocky, and there are places that are very slippery, but I will be with you, and I will not be silent anymore. Soon it will be time to move, and to be seen moving.

Thanks God!
