Still...
"Be still and know that I am God."
Be still....
slow down...
even in my mind not just externally.
Be entirely still.
And know the He IS God.
Still...
quiet, thoughtfulness, not for just the purpose of being quiet but being still to KNOW Him. Be quiet to hear His "still small voice."
quiet, thoughtfulness, not for just the purpose of being quiet but being still to KNOW Him. Be quiet to hear His "still small voice."
Busyness of mind,
busyness of hands and actions
will hinder us from hearing.
My heart...
my mind...
must be still.
Thank you, Lord that busyness does not equate holiness to you. Thank you, Lord that you want me to be still and KNOW You. That in order to choose the "good part" as Mary did, I must come to You and be still.

I wrote this post as part of "5 minute Friday."
It was so much fun!
I didn't use a stop clock so mine may be more of a 4.5 or 6 minute Friday link-up, but I did enjoy doing it... it was a great little mind exercise.
love it.. and love your blog look to!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jenn!
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful! Thank you! I love that you thought of Mary with being still. She is our model of stillness. Thank you again!! Have a good weekend!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for this. I enjoyed the calmness your post brought. Mary is such a good picture of this stillness as well. Thanks for reminding us of this.
