The Quiet Mirror

Scripture  

Psalm 139:23–24 (NRSV)  

Search me, O God, and know my heart;  

test me and know my thoughts.  

See if there is any wicked way in me,  

and lead me in the way everlasting.

Refrain  

In stillness, You show me who I truly am.

Quote

Thomas R. Kelly, from *A Testament of Devotion*  

“Deep within us all there is a wonderful inner sanctuary of the soul,  

a holy place, a Divine Center,  

a speaking Voice, to which we may continuously return.  

It is lighted by the presence of God  

and is the sheer grace of the eternal breaking into the temporal.  

When we sink down into this quiet Center,  

we come to know ourselves as seen,  

not with shame, but with clarity.  

We are not who we perform to be,  

but who we are when no one is watching.  

And that person—still and surrendered—  

is the one God already knows and loves.”
