About Patty Perkins
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.
“…Come with me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest.” Mark 6:31 (NIV)

…..
My rest is in Jesus
My strength and my song,
No matter the workload—
The day short or long.
…..
He settles my heart
Before the task,
Refills the tank—
If I but ask.
…..
Alone with him
Is surely ideal,
A chance to recoup—
Restore and heal.
…..
Time with Jesus
In a quiet place,
Prepares the heart—
For the hectic race.
