"The Serenity"

November 27, 2023 Daily Devotion: "The Serenity" Psalm 131:1-2 New International Version 1 My heart is not proud, Lord, my eyes are not haughty; I do not concern myself with great matters or things too wonderful for me. 2 But I have calmed and quieted myself I am like a weaned child with its mother; like a weaned child I am content. To enjoy this continuous inner peace, we must periodically pause everything and let our soul become aware of the Holy Spirit’s presence. In today’s reading, David described it as being like a “weaned child” at perfect rest in his mother’s arms. Intentionally slowing down can be difficult to do, but experiencing the serenity and rest God provides is a gift well worth seeking.
