“Thou shalt rest...” God “Conversations Within” ts 4/25/2018
Grace modeste- an "unassuming grace." Any discussion of a spiritual nature should reflect this mutual kindness. The following are simply my devotional reflections each morning. I cast them like "bread upon the waters," hoping that all who find them will find something of value to nurture their own inner life.

“Sometimes the most productive thing you can do is relax.” Unknown
One of the best gifts that God has given to mankind is the commandment to rest. Learning to rest and relax is a skill that matures over time. It is one thing to still the body and another to quiet the soul. Someone has said, “Just be.” When we stop the body we must also learn to stop thinking and rest the mind. Embrace and enjoy the moment. Open this precious gift and find rest for your soul. There is an Italian phrase I love, “La dolce far niente.” It means, “the sweetness of doing nothing.”
