Be STILL.
But God, I don’t know how.
How do I stop my mind from running recklessly a million miles an hour as if I’m in an urgent high speed chase? How do I STOP striving and just remain, resting in Your presence?
BE STILL.
But Daddy, I have so much to do – You know how many people still need to be mobilized… You know how much knowledge I don’t have that would be useful… You know how much I would like to do for You.
Be STILL.
But Lord, You've called me to heal the sick and set the captives free. there are so many broken homes, widowed women, orphaned children. They NEED someone to reach out.
BE STILL.
STOP Worrying! Let Me humble you and remove the pride you have built up. You have done nothing. I, your KING and righteousness have done much for you. I have blessed you to thousands of generations. In you I have placed living water, the wellspring of life.
BE STILL.
You can’t do anything, but in Me you can do EVERYTHING.
BE STILL.
Rest in my power that drives out demons and raises the dead. Power that overcomes anything the prince of this world will throw at you.
"BE STILL and know that I am God, I WILL be exalted among the nations I WILL be exalted in the earth." (Ps 46:10)
Abide.
Remain.
That is all you must do child, so rest.
Woah, I just let you step into my journal for a second. That's an intense honor ;). This is where I've been struggling this past week. In our "doing" culture, I think it's really hard for most of us (me specifically) to simply stop, put down our distractions, and BE STILL with God.
I've been feeling the Lord calling me to more moments of peace; times when I actually put down my cellphone, computer, music, and just hang out with Him. & as those times comes (which honestly, are pretty rare still) they are the most beautifull moments of the day.
So, I invite you to come with me and let go of distractions for a while… & be still with our creator.
I PROMISE it will be worth it!
