My favorite place for still, quiet meditation in the Bible at the moment is on my bed. It's my space, and my computer is not visible from there, so it really helps with cutting out distractions. Those times of quietness are so precious to me.<br /><br />Thanks for the giveaway!<br />Blessings,<br />Esther<br />http://learningresourcedirectory.comEsther Filbrunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13149801746153343967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-141818350819675908.post-24044509241777275802017-03-18T09:48:10.587-05:002017-03-18T09:48:10.587-05:00Hi, Chautona, thanks for stopping by.

But I did enjoy going out on my back patio and listen to the sound of mockingbirds and doves.

I don't "meet God" there naturally. For me, my best place is when I finally sit down, alone, after everyone has gone to bed at the "barn" I go to for a retreat every year. There I "hear" the Lord best.<br /><br />The rest of the year, it's just anytime I get alone in the car.Chautonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00938458606030887826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-141818350819675908.post-67294654276171494782017-03-17T16:37:21.006-05:002017-03-17T16:37:21.006-05:00Amen to the sound of flowing water, Gail.

While I was renting the house I now own, there was a small fish pond on the north side of the house, just outside one of the bedroom windows, with a waterfall over some rocks. LOVED that pond! But, the landlord took the pond out a few months before he sold it to us. Too much upkeep, and the algae was getting out of control. Sad.<br />Anyway, thanks for coming by, Gail. Your name is in the hat!
