Yesterday I was looking for a verse to put on Twitter. Laurern suggested her life verse: "Be still and know that I am God." Wow, what a concept. Be still. It is not a suggestion. No, it is a command. God tells us to BE STILL. That is hard, at times impossible, in our society. I don't have kids and it is hard for me, I am sure it gets exponentially harder with ball games, school plays, homework, swim meets, all of the above times ten! But, I think if you can't "be still" physically, I think what He is saying is to be still emotionally. Let your mind be at ease. Know that God is working everything out. You sitting and worrying about it (probably losing sleep you are worrying so much) is not good. In those moments where you feel like you life is in chaos and you can't go anymore. Be still. Know that He is God- and you are not.
A good word for sure! When I am still before God He does quiet my soul and remind me He has it under His control.
