Thoughtful Thursday...


Restlessness and impatience change
nothing except our peace and joy.

Peace does not dwell in outward things,
but in the heart prepared to
wait trustfully and quietly on Him who
has all things safely in His hands."

~Elisabeth Elliot


Hope you all had a Lovely Thursday!
~Many Blessings~

"Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace,

whose mind is stayed on thee:

because he trusteth in thee."

-Isaiah 26:3
