"He says, “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.” ~Psalms 46:10.
Be still...How hard it is to be still in our busy, go-go lives? We feel the need to be constantly moving, being efficient, getting something done, just doing something! Yet through it all, we're missing something. Somewhere in our busy schedules we're missing the fact that the King of the universe, the Creator of every thing--living and non-living--is telling us to be still in Him, to spend time with Him, and acknowledge Him as God. Shouldn't this make us drop everything and spend time with Him? M.E. Andross once said, “Time spent alone with God is not wasted. It changes us; it changes our surroundings; and every Christian who would live the life that counts, and who would have power for service must take time to pray.”
Too often we pretend like spending time with God is wasted, pretending that we have something better to do. The truth is, spending time with God prepares us for the rest of the day. Are you preparing yourself for the rest of the day by being still in front of God, or are you rushing straight into it, missing the blessings that come with being still in front of the Lord?
