This really spoke to me. Sometimes the real battle isn’t the loud, obvious attacks, it’s the subtle irritations and distractions that try to pull our focus away from God’s peace. I love how you shifted your attention from the “noise” to the rooted stillness of the tree. That reminder from Psalm 1 and John 15 is powerful our strength is in staying connected to the Vine, not in chasing every distraction.
Another beautiful reflection of God's grace today, Cathy--thank you! I am recommending your Substack with: "Cathy reads and writes with a sensitivity to the Holy Spirit, and here is a wellspring of living words for the weary traveler. She invites us to slow down and experience God--to find Him in the quiet by the well, and also along the way to wherever we are going. We meet Him in our moments wherever we are--because He is right here with us."

Yes. It takes only the Holy Spirit to shift one to such a place and posture of spirit. Thank you Sae. Glad it inspires you too 😘
Great metaphor.
Thank you Jeff 😊

I would rather stay with the tree
It is the wind breaker
