LET ME BE STILL AND LISTEN TO THE TRUTH.
It is so easy to get lost in our daily activities and not take time to simply stop, breathe and attune to our hearts, where the seat of our truth lies. We ensconce ourselves in the busyness of our thoughts, giving priority to the ‘idea’ of having so much to do while desperately wanting to keep everything under control. Caught up in this maelstrom of unnecessary noise and restlessness, we are anything but in control. We are occupied by the mind’s musings, easily distracted and ultimately the mind feels scattered. Paradoxically, life works best when we surrender the need for control and allow life to take its course. Surrendering does not mean we fall into the abyss of passivity, because to surrender requires being actively alert in listening to the heart. To quote Eckhart Tolle, “stillness speaks”. So, take time daily to observe five minutes of silence as often as possible, and succumb to your inner peace by saying: “let me be still and listen to the truth.” Your heart is guaranteed to respond.
