“It comes the very moment you wake up each morning. All your wishes and
hopes for the day rush at you like wild animals. And the first job each
morning consists simply in shoving them all back; in listening to that
other voice, taking that other point of view, letting that other larger,
stronger, quieter life come flowing in. And so on, all day. Standing
back from all your natural fussings and frettings; coming in out of the
wind.”
― C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity
The other voice is the
Holy Spirit and the other point of view is the Word of God and the
larger stronger quieter life is Christ in you the hope of glory. Allow
the Christ life, the Holy Spirit and the Word of God to protect you from
all the other voices that rush in on you in the morning and throughout
the day and be at peace.
