Our ever-present Creator,
you alone can satisfy the hunger in our hearts,
for you made us for yourself.
Help us to relinquish all idols
and to find our fulfillment
solely in you
in this moment
and in every moment.
~Gregory Boyd in Present Perfect: Finding God in the Now
In the stillness,
Sandy
Welcome to Still Saturday where we pause after a busy week, move in quiet pilgrimage, maybe linger a while in some still place, and soak in the beauty of images and words. We’d love for you to join us. Get the details on the left, grab your favorite button, and link up below. We all love to hear if something especially speaks to your heart, but please don’t feel pressured to comment. Simply take some time to gaze long and drink deep.

“to find our fulfillment only in him.” Coming here always takes my breath away. Words I need to remember always. Blessings to you Sandra. Have a wonderful weekend.
Sandra says
These Saturday posts get the most blog traffic. I think people are starving for stillness, and I’m so humbled that they find some of that here and at the links. Hugs to you, Beth.

Dear Sandra
This is now what I call sanctified common sense!? Even those people who are not following our Lord Jesus, will do well to realize that every “now” moment is all we have to enjoy;so we should make the best of each moment. We, as Pappa’s children have the assurance that all our moments of the future is safe in His hands for all eternity!
Have a great week-end, dear one.
Mia
Sandra says
Every now moment is all we have. Yes, Mia. Love to you.

Lovely image! One day I hope to capture an image of the hummingbirds that have returned to our area. Unrelated, but I’d like to learn more about the button on your sidebar, the Bible Memory Group. Can anyone join this? Thanks and have a blessed weekend!
Sandra says
Absolutely! You just need to sign up for ScriptureTyper and then look for and add that group. It takes a little bit to get used to the site, but it’s awesome. I actually prefer my iPhone app.
