Just Be Still

Greetings to all; let us make an effort to set aside all the problems and distractions of the world, be still and behold the glory of God.

Being still can be difficult. For many, it's the weekend, the time we expect to spend time doing whatever we desire to do after a long work week. No matter how unexpected or challenging the events of our past week may have been, we can settle down and relax.

Psalm 46:8–9 (MSG)

8 Attention, all! See the marvels of GOD! He plants flowers and trees all over the earth,

9 Bans war from pole to pole and breaks all the weapons across his knee.

Psalm 46:10 (GW)

10 Let go ⌊of your concerns⌋! Then you will know that I am God. I rule the nations. I rule the earth.

Lesson: Because of God's power and protection, we can accept His invitation to be still and let go of our fears and concerns. We can be at ease, settle down and relax after a long, challenging, and exhausting work week.
