Getting Quiet |
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE |
“Be still, and know that I am God...” |
(Psalm 46:10, NKJV) |
TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria |
So
many people today find themselves caught up in the day-to-day busyness
of life, driven to do more in less time. It seems people constantly
strive to find ways to cram more into their already overcrowded
schedules. But at the same time, God is constantly inviting us to step
away from the hectic pace of life and come to Him to find rest for our
souls. He invites us to be still before Him, to get quiet so we can hear
His voice and set our hearts and minds at peace.
Every
day, you should take time to read the scripture and meditate on God’s
promises. Every time you’re in the car, put on some good praise music.
Make it a point to spend time with God throughout the day. When you get
quiet, say, “God, I love You, today. Lord, thank You for my life, my
family, my dreams.” That’s what is going to keep you strong. That’s
what’s going to keep you moving forward in the right direction.
Today,
make it a point to be still before God. Quiet your mind of all the
things on your agenda and just focus on Him. Let Him love you, let Him
speak to your heart, and let Him fill you with peace and strength each
and every day.

A PRAYER FOR TODAY |
Father, thank You for Your love and grace upon me. Right now, I let go of all the distractions of life and focus on You. I choose to be still, to get quiet before You and thank You for Your peace all the days of my life in Jesus’ name. Amen. |
