Be still. Really still

Scripture: “Be still, and know that I am God.” — Psalm 46:10

Stillness doesn’t happen accidentally. Our world is engineered to keep us loud, busy, scrolling, rushing, reacting.

And yet God says something shockingly counter-cultural: Be still.

Stillness is not laziness.

Stillness is active trust.

If you can scroll for an hour, you can sit still for ten minutes. If you can watch a show, you can wait on God. The question is never time, it’s attention.

Application:

Today, schedule 5 minutes of stillness. Literally schedule it.

No requests.

No journaling.

No agenda.

Just: “Speak, Lord.”

Prayer:

God, teach me to slow down. Quiet my mind. Calm my heart. I want to know You, not just talk about You. Amen.
