Be still

Psalm 46:10

He says, “Be still, and know that I am God;     I will be exalted among the nations,    I will be exalted in the earth.”

There are times  I can feel God working in me.  Sometimes when I am in it I don't always love it, because it is through a time of hardship.  When it's all over, or somewhere in the mucky middle I can see what He is showing me, and trying to rearrange within me.  This summer I can really feel Him teaching me to Be Still.  Oh I struggle with this!  I think I have it, and then I lose it again.   It's a tricky thing.  As He continues to help me work through this I realize more and more.  For instance, be still. When I am still I think of things, remember things, let Him show me what it is I need to see.  When I first tried to be still I was left wondering " what am I still for" , "what am I waiting for".  I am fine tuning the art of being still... at least for now.  I am grateful that He takes the time to teach me these things.  It is in this time that I am still that I shut out the noise and learn to lean on Him.  It is the best, most warm and cozy feeling, and I am BLESSED beyond measure to experience it.
