Stillness Is Not Idleness
Wisdom Nugget:
“Slowing down isn’t wasting time—it’s making space for God.”
Wisdom from Seniors:
The older adults I serve have taught me that we often measure a day by what we’ve done, but heaven measures differently. They’ve learned through the years that the moments we pause, listen, and simply be—these are sacred. As one dear senior told me, “Jesus never rushed, yet He was never late.”
📖 Scripture:
“Be still, and know that I am God.” — Psalm 46:10
Chaplain’s Reflection:
Presence is not doing nothing; it’s powerful. When we slow down, we make space for grace. The seniors I visit have mastered this art. Today, let being present be your main gift.
💭 Think About This:
What if your worth wasn’t tied to your to-do list, but to your ability to be fully present?
🙏 Prayer:
Lord, teach me to walk at Your pace. Help me see that slowing down is sacred. Amen.
