Be still

Today has been a crazy, busy day! Cleaning, email, 8 loads of laundry, boys running and falling down, etc...In the midst of all of it I realized I had to go to the bathroom- BAD. Then somebody did something and I forgot and then something else happened and I forgot...needless to say I was running around my house and forgot to listen to my body which was screaming, "I have to pee!!!!" Finally, I did go. Sorry if this is so awful, but it is so true. This incident made me think, "Be still." Sometimes we get so busy that we forgot to be still and listen to ourselves, our kids, our friends, our husbands, our God! Take 5 and be still for a moment and ask God what he wants to say to you today or pray for somebody you know that is hurting. I did and I am so thankful that God meets us in our day just like a good friend to help us be still.

Psalm 46:10 " Be still and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth."

Sweet Diane! What a reminder of Christ you were to me in posting this song! I actually walked down the aisle at my wedding to this very song. It's one of those that grabs me every time and can shake me out of my stuper and remind me to wait on the Lord. Gotta love SCC for singing it too! =)
