“BE STILL AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD” What does that mean . . . “Be Still” My thoughts race as I think of how this should be done. How this problem I face should be handled. How right I am and how wrong that person is. Why can’t they see it like I see it, I know I am right, or maybe even I question myself, why can’t I see it like they see it. Maybe I really am wrong and they are right. Maybe it is some of both, and its both our faults. I know my mind is racing a 100 miles per hour with tons and tons of thoughts on this matter . . . and . . . it’s then I realize . . . I am so far from God, so far from being STILL. I think that when God calls me to be still He really wants me to STOP. Stop thinking, Stop solving, Stop justifying my actions, Stop judging, just S-T-O-P. When I do stop it’s me and God . . . just us . . . no one else, no other circumstance, no other problem, no other issue, and now I see myself standing very still before the creator of the universe. His Glory overtakes me, His Greatness makes me look so small, His Holiness makes me feel so sinful, His Beauty takes my breath away, His knowledge makes me understand that I don’t know everything, His love encompasses me and I feel free, His righteousness reassures me, His Authority humbles me. Everything he is draws me to Him. I see the Cross now, the ultimate sacrifice, Jesus, Gods son for my. I bow in humility. I want to bring honor to God, I want to bring glory to the King of Kings, I want you lord to use me. and again I notice I am STILL This is where I want to be, here is the center of God. I want to know how I got here and how I stay here. I got here from a trial or conflict. I don’t remember what is was anymore . . . or at least is sure seems unimportant at this point. I stay here by remaining still, focused on God. As trials and tribulations come toward me, if I remain in this place . . . still and focused on God, they too are unable to harm me. Now I know what it means “Be Still and Know That I am God”. Lord keep me here, still and focused on you.
