Psalm 46:10a - Be still, and know that I am God.

As I have shared before, I felt anxious these past few weeks. Felt so many uncertainty. Somehow don't know what to do or have nothing to do, give me more pressure rather than being busy. Having discussed with Novi, she shared that she has been through this situation before and advice me this verse. Doing nothing is not a sin, sometimes we need to surrender and give chance to God to reveal His way, His plan and His will fo us rather than we try to make up everything for ourselves. No wonder, we always feel tired, because we lean on our own strength only.

I found this song in Youtube, very inspiring.

The writer comment:
In this verse, God's people are commanded to "be still", to cause ourselves to "let go", or let ourselves become weak. We surrender ourselves in order to know that God is in control. Too often, we believe that we can do all things on our own, without God's help. Personal initiative is no substitute for reliance upon God. We are also to "know that He is God". We need to meditate on His attributes - Holiness, Perfection, Majesty, Mercy, and infinite Wisdom ... to name a few. He has adopted us as His children, and looks after us always.
{Romans 8:14-17}

Know that He is God! He is the all-powerful Creator of the universe! Be still because of what you know about God. Consider all that He has done, for ones in the past and for each of us in our own lives. Rejoice in the calmness and serenity that comes when we trust in the One that took our sin upon Him, and gave us His Peace that surpasses all understanding ... and everlasting life in Him.
