Be Still

Hide me now
Under Your wings
Cover me
Within Your mighty hand

When the oceans rise and thunders roar
I will soar with You above the storm
Father you are King over the flood
I will be still and know You are God
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/h/hillsong_united/still.html ]
Find rest my soul
In Christ alone
Know His power
In quietness and trust

When the oceans rise and thunders roar
I will soar with You above the storm
Father You are king over the flood
I will be still and know You are God

It has been a while since I have heard this song and once again the Lord has used it to keep my heart calm and my nerves settled. The first time I heard this song was when life was just spinning so fast and it seemed that there was no way out; that was 10 years ago. Today, life is much different than 10 years ago, however, there are still many factors of this life that can seem too heavy to carry. This song reminds me that I do not have to carry any of it. I can trust the Lord with my yesterday, my today, and even my tomorrow. Though we are in a good season of life, this week started feeling heavy and a bit strenuous. I am pleased to know that there is nothing that I have to make happen, there is truly nothing that I am in control of, and there is absolutely nothing that I can mess up so bad that God doesn’t know what to do with it. This realization causes me to climb back into the hands of the Lord and to simply be still; trusting that He knows all of the answers to those questions and is aware of each step I should take in this life.

Be encouraged today!

BE STILL.
