Be Still

Good morning! A famous verse, a tough command to follow. "Be still, and know that I am God." (Psalm 46:10) Yet, that is the same command that Jesus gave to the Sea of Galilee when it rose up in storm one night. "Peace, be still." and the lake knew that He was God. It is tough to follow in this age. We tend to 'know' that our Lord is God as we rush from one thing to another and another. Is it really possible to know God with all that rushing about? But, I am not here to rake you over the coals for a hectic life. You may very well have tried to avoid just such a thing. What we need is some heavenly help with being still for a time.

We want to know God more. That is a fruit the Spirit produces in us. I cannot believe that the Spirit would produce the desire to know God more without enabling a way. A way? Who does that remind me of? Ah yes, a man told a group of his followers once that he was the way, the truth, and the life. He also mentioned a destination that is right in line with who we desire to know better. Want to know the Father better? The Son is the way. Want to know the truth of God? Jesus is that truth. Want to be still? We have some wonderful heavenly help for that.

For a big finish, I had a big sneeze attack. I think my brain cells are all scattered about now. Enjoy the day in Christ; ask Him for a bit of time to be still.
