Spirit, guide me into the refuge of your Light and Love. Help me to see the noise in my world and return to the peace that you know is best for me.

We can all get caught up in the noise of life. So, who and what are you surrounding yourself with? Are those things life-giving or sucking the life out of you?

Recently, my husband used the term, “visual noise” and it struck a chord with me. We all choose what we like in life, but for others, it can be noisy, whether it be visual noise, toxic energy from people, sounds that pierce our ears, tastes that cause stomach pain, harmful touches, and smells that make you gag.

Where do you go when you need visual peace?
