About Patty Perkins

Unknown's avatar
I'm Patty, writer of the devotional blog, Beside Quiet Waters. I love writing, reading and taking long walks with my camera. I've been married to my loving husband for 40 years. We have two grown sons, two lovely daughters-in-law, and two amazing grandchildren. I am thankful for a place to share spilled ink, in hopes of encouraging others to find daily hope and inspiration in God's Word.

Let me be found

Jeremiah 23:18 “But which of them has stood in the council of the Lord to see or to hear his word? Who has listened and heard his word?” (NIV)*

Let me be found

in the morning, listening—

eager for his word.

Self set aside

eyes opened wide,

waiting—

his voice to be heard.
