Being Still

Psalm 46:10

The other day I was doing some cleaning around the house while the girls were busy on a project and the house was quiet. My first thought was how mundane life is at times, how we do the same things day in and day out, then my mind began to think upon words to a chorus we sang on Sunday. I could just feel the Lord’s presence around me. I felt Him speak to me about things I have been heavy hearted over. I felt a peace and reassurance that He was there, walking with me through these situations.

God says to “be still,” so . . . I wonder if we stopped looking at our lives as boring, and began using the mundane times to stop and listen to the Lord, how much deeper and more intimate would we become with Him?

My prayer this week, for me and you, will be to take those quiet moments to listen to God speak and not try to fill them with noise or busy-ness.
