Be Still...

“Be still and know that I am God” (Psalm 46:10)

For those of you who are reading this, please understand that I write as I learn… these things I write I am in this moment wrapping my heart and mind around and I am joyfully glad to share my heart with you…

Be still…
How many times do we hear God say this and we say “yes, God! I will be still, I will wait upon you, I will let you work out the circumstances, situations, relationship, etc. in my life… BUT first let me just do this one thing…
We think God needs our help! We say I’ll trust you, but let me just get you started in the right direction… and then once we get started we find ourselves having to do “just one more thing” again and again and again.

Do you find yourself in the middle of a difficult circumstance asking God why? We want to know why! We say, “Ok, God I’ll endure this trial as long as you show me why”. Do you know God’s most common answer to the question “why?”? “Because I am” He is God! He is God… and not only is He God, the Almighty, the First and the Last, but He loves you! You are His precious child and if you will only rest in that you will not need to know why, you will not try and help Him out when He says be still, you will know that He is God and part of knowing that He is God means knowing that He is love (1 John 4:16).

Precious child of God, listen to your loving Father today! He is longing to be near you, longing to be known by you, longing for you to let go! Snuggle up to your Papa and rest in His love, rest in the knowledge that He is God!
