“Be still and know that I am God.” Ps. 46:10a
Be Still
I am God in the good times.
I am God in the bad times.
I am God when you feel sick.
I am God when you are well.
I am God inside and outside.
I am God when you sit and when you stand,
and even when you run.
I am God when you weep.
I am God when you laugh.
I am God in the slow times and the busy times.
I am God when you pray.
I am God when you praise.
I am God when you do neither.
And when you don’t feel like it can be so, I am still God.
I am God when you feel enlightened.
I am God when you are confused.
I am God in the past.
I am God in the present.
I am God in the future.
I am God.
Be still. Be still.
When you weep, be still and my arms will hold you.
When you laugh, be still for a moment and your joy will increase.
When you remember, be still and I will reveal my goodness.
When you are confused, be still and I will give you peace.
When you are frightened, be still and take courage.
When you are overwhelmed, be still and I will fill you.
That says it all!
