Psalm 46:10a “Be still, and know that I am God.”
It is good to be in peace. The highest peace is to be in peace with God. How wonderful to be in total comfort, free of stress, no worries in mind because of being in the presence of God. To know His complete acceptance, His total love and the calm that comes to all who love Him and make themselves alone with Him. To be with Him in the midst of people and commotion and to yet to still be sharing quiet moments with Him. To take a deep breath and with the exhaled breath to be transported into His presence and to be so calm, so at peace and so surrounded by love that thoughts of stress and worries are not even thought of. To just be still, in the presence of God, to soak in the essence of Him and to relax and smile. How marvelous, exciting and just restful and wonderful, all at the same time. To go to sleep with Him and to wake with Him. To stop in moments of hurry, to refocus on Him and just know that He is and to know who He is. To know who one is to Him. What peace and rest to know that one is God’s own very precious child and completely loved and absolutely protected by Him. No worries, no fears, no anxious thoughts, just slow breathing and peace in the presence and arms of God.
No better place than being still and being in His presence. No better place than being still, really still, and knowing God. Oh how His presence is to be cherished. Relax, stay in, and enjoy our God! Praise God1
