Let Be and Be Still

Let be and be still, 

and know (recognize and understand)

 that I am God.

 I will be exalted among the nations! 

I will be exalted in the earth!

The Lord of hosts is with us; 

the God of Jacob is our Refuge

 (our High Tower and Stronghold). 

Selah 

[pause, and calmly think of that]!

Psalm 46:10-11

This is what the Sovereign LORD, 

the Holy One of Israel, says: 

“Only in returning to me 

and resting in me will you be saved. 

In quietness and confidence is your strength. 

But you would have none of it.

Isaiah 30:15

Shhhh, be still.

I know that it is hard. 

I know you don't understand. 

Quiet now.

Remember what I have told you.

I have not left you on your own.

I am right here with you.

I will never leave you.

Come to Me.

Tell Me what is on your heart.

Lay your burden down at My feet. 

I hear you when you call to Me.

I am at work. 

Remember to thank Me.

Your thanks shows Me that you trust Me.

Thanksgiving keeps your focus on Me,

on what I am doing,

what I am going to do.

I hold your future.

I know the plans I have for you.

You only need to be still

and know

that I am God.
