The Lord is my pacesetter… I shall not rush
He makes me stop for quiet intervals
He provides me with images of stillness which restore my serenity
He leads me in the way of efficiency through calmness of mind and his guidance is peace
Even though I have a great many things to accomplish each day, I will not fret, for his presence is here
He timelessness, his all importance will keep me in balance
He prepares refreshment and renewal in the midst of my activity by anointing my mind with his oils of tranquility
My cup of joyous energy overflows
Truly harmony and effectiveness shall be the fruits of hours for I shall walk I the Pace of my Lord and dwell in his house for ever.
A version of the 23rd Psalm from Japan (excerpted from Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World by Joanna Weaver)
I thought this was worthy of a reprint given the season and the general craziness that ensues. May God Give You Peace This Holiday Season.
