Just Be Still..............



Every once in a while I will stumble upon a song that touches my heart and speaks directly to my situation.  One morning while getting dressed for work, I discovered a song by Yolanda Adams titled "Be Still" This song immediately calmed my spirit and gave me an affirmation that God is who He says He is!

"Be still and know!" is a phrase that we often encounter in our journey through life, but have we ever taken the time to know what this actually means? Be Still and know is not necessarily a phrase that suggests we physically remain still--it is more of a spiritual command.  Let us examine this phrase a bit...Webster's Dictionary defines the word be as to exist , have presence or live....and the word still as remaining in place or at rest; motionless; stationary, free from sound or noise, as a place or persons; silent... If we are told to be still, it means for us to rest our spirit knowing that whatever we are in need of is in God's hands. How often do we take the time to spiritually listen? We often search for answers to our issues and never receive one simply because we are not still enough to hear God.  If our spirit is uncalmed or disturbed for example, full of worry or anxiety, contemplating, running to and fro trying to figure out things and get answers on our own, it can be difficult to receive anything from God.

Today's Food for the Soul: Be still and know that God is who He says He is! Know that He is Omnipotent, has all power in His hands! Know that He is Omniscient, aware of every problem, every situation you are facing!  Know that there is no failure in God! Just be still and Know! You have to know without a shadow of doubt that God is who He says He is and that there is no failure in Him! I encourage you to be still.....listen to Yolanda's song below and allow the lyrics to saturate your mind and spirit!

Peace and Blessings,
Kiki
