Keeping in Tune

Sunday. Mark 4: 35-41.

Rhythm of sound is music. Rhythm of color is beauty. Rhythm of action is peace and power. Peace within, deep as the sea, still as the stars, fragrant as locust blossoms in May, as undisturbable as the everlasting hills. Jesus made peace by the Cross. We find peace as we stay in full rhythmic touch with him. Let’s keep in step with Jesus. Then we shall know the inner music of peace, and others will feel the fragrant touch of power.
