We are told to study to be quiet… to be still and know that He is and it is His to fight. Sometimes, the answers are not there. We are told to rebuke and to admonish, to accept with joy when we are so that we can grow. However, sometimes that doesn't come, instead silence, and indifference and you don't know why.
But then I am reminded, it is a blessing to be still... to be quiet, to not ask why, to not yearn to understand...just let it be. After all, when it comes down to it, it is about He, not me.
So... with His help, I pray with trust and care, with hope and love, and with mercy and action, because the God of all is near. I must never allow hurt and bitterness to seep in because than the darkness wins. We are overcomers in Him. Yes..I am so grateful. I take a deep breath and reflect on His love, the One to whom I belong. Eternity is promised, now is for preserving and rejoicing in quiet times with Him.
My people will abide in a peaceful habitation, in secure dwellings, and in quiet resting places.
