"Be still and know, that I am God" - Psalm 46:10

I chose this picture because it reminds me that even in the midst of chaos, in the roaring sea, God is still in control. It reminds me of who God is. He is peace even in the middle of my storm. He stills me.

[ae-cha08]

Realize how much you are cherished by God. You are indeed loved by Him. As you go through your day, rejoice knowing that God has woven every detail to continually work out for good! He has your back!

Narnia, silence

Flame-light cast warmth over the stone lines of the face opposite his, the eyes that followed his every move—the pacing, the hand gripping sword hilt, the shaking head—until he slowed, until he settled, until he sat quiet on stone steps, hands fallen in his lap, gaze lifted up, above himself, beyond himself, to lose himself, to find himself peirced, held, seen.

Heartbeat hushed. Breath deepened. Soul stilled.

Only in the silence could Peter finally hear.

💛 Silence is the greatest gift humanity can experience. In the stillness of silence, we can connect with and hear our true selves, the universal Life force within… and receive all the answers to our questions. Yet, so few people seek out silence or recognize its value. 💛

Waiting on God isn’t punishment.

It’s preparation.

[writeclick]

In stillness,

in chaos --

know that He is the LORD!

In speech,

in quiet --

know that He is the LORD!

In daybreak,

in darkness --

know that He is the LORD!

In the cold breeze,

in the heat of day --

know that He is the LORD!

In confusion,

in misery --

know that He is the LORD!

In laughter,

in sorrow --

know that He is the LORD!

In triumph,

in defeat --

know that He is the LORD!

As you go,

as you pause --

know that He is the LORD!

In every circumstance,

Be still -- and

know that He is the LORD!

5 ways to connect with God

[orthodoxsoul]

[conscious-pisces]

“To the mind that is still, the whole universe surrenders.”

—Lao Tzu

[ae-cha08]

Here’s the thing with the high road: no one needs to know you are taking it.

You don’t need to announce or parade down the high road for all to see. God sees that you’re taking it. And that’s all that matters. Not everyone can take the high road however. Not everyone has the humility to take it. Not everyone can lay down their selfish desires and insatiable need to be right.

Not everyone can…But you can. Simply choose the high road.

More from my mom's collection of vocal pieces that she performed. This is the only clip of this particular piece that I can find -- knowing her voice, I'm sure she sounded glorious singing it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBWSagZYt-w

Divine Embrace

In the chaos of your life, be still,

In the quietness of your life, be still.

Amid the storms that rage, and the winds that roar,

In the calmness that follows, in peace, and more.

In the silence is when you'll hear me,

In the noise is when you'll feel me.

When the world quiets down to a whisper soft,

Listen for my voice, deep within there I'll be oft.

My warmth will cover you like a blanket snug,

My comfort will ease your pain, a tender hug.

As the sun wraps the earth at the break of dawn, So my solace upon you is lovingly drawn.

Be still and know that I am God,

In every heartbeat, in every nod.

Through the trials and the tribulations you face,

Be still in my love, find your grace.

For in stillness, my presence becomes clear,

A beacon of hope, drawing ever near.

In the quiet and the chaos, in joy and in pain,

Be still, my child, in my love remain.

Be still.

Note:

This poem, "Divine Embrace," was born from a place of personal struggle and the profound experience of divine comfort and love. In my darkest moments, when the cacophony of life threatened to overwhelm me, I felt an indescribable warmth envelop me, a gentle reminder to be still and recognize the presence of God. It is a testament to the power of divine love to transcend our trials and offer solace and strength, reminding us that, even in the midst of turmoil, we are never alone. That's my experience and I share it with you now.
