Be Still


Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth! (Psalms 46:10 KJV)

I know that it isn’t just me, even though it feels like it, but why is it so hard to just stop and wait on God? Why can’t I just be still? Whenever things start getting a little crazy in life my first reaction is to try to make things happen, to try and take control, but it doesn’t get me very far. I feel more like I am running in place, feeling exhausted, and having nothing to show for all of my effort.

Well, the good new is that I don’t have to try and fix things on my own. I know, I need to remember this more often, but it is true. God is so awesome and incredibly great. He is the answer. He is strong enough and faithful enough to take care of all of my worries. I just need to be still and trust in Him. I love the contemporary version of this verse,

Our God says, “Calm down, and learn that I am God! All nations on earth will honor me.”

My prayer is that we put this to the test. Calm down and learn (understand and know) that our God is an almighty God and we can trust in Him.
