Often, in our busy, gerbil on a wheel world, with its often meaningless motion and wastes of time, we need to get quiet and still before God. As the Scripture says, (Psalm 46:10)- "Be still, and know that I am God." Make some space to be still before God and feel His presence within you. Remember "Greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world." (1 John 4:4)
What a powerful, yet calming, piece of scripture is Psalm 46:10! "Be still, and know that I am God." The "be still" is so important. We need to make a space for ourselves, a time to be quiet. And we need to realize Who God is -- our Creator, our King, our breath and our being. When you read the whole of Psalm 46 you see a very powerful message: not only am I to be calm and spend time before God in humility and patient quietness, listening to His still small voice within me, but I am also to know that "God is in control."
He is almighty, the controller of every situation. We need to seek a quiet time, and we need to be humble as we consider how great God is and how weak we are without Him. May you enjoy your time alone with God -- and may it bring you strength for the day and the days ahead!
