"Be still, and know that I am God . . ."
- Psalm 46:10
WHEN was the last time we sat still and did absolutely nothing?
Being "still" truly has become a lost art. It's next to nonexistence. The average person is constantly caught up in a bustle of activity. We rush here; rush there; rush, rush, rush, everywhere.
Why wouldn't there be stress, stress, stress, everywhere? Be not deceived, the more speedy life becomes, the more stress it brings.
Many are beginning to realize that hopping here and there doesn't render our lives better; only busier. And, indeed, more stressful.
Though we all are exposed to a super-fast world, stress survivors purposely choose times to be still. We are convinced that being still in the presence of God, brings about the peace of God.
When we know God in a personal way--through a personal relationship--we're confident in seeking His Word for stress. No questions about it, we need God's supernatural strength to eliminate annoying stress and experience genuine de-stress.
If we aspire to do something grand this summer, let's de-stress by habitually choosing time to be still and to seek God's will.
Peace I leave with you . . .
