Be Still And Know...

  • Mood:

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

***********************************

"Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him; do not fret when men succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes.  Psalm 37:7 (NIV)"

**********************************

"The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still." Exodus 14:14 (NIV)

**********************************

"Now then, stand still and see this great thing the LORD is about to do before your eyes!"  1 Samuel 12:16 (NIV)

**********************************


BE STILL...

How does one be still, when the whole world around is in chaos?

How does one distinguish the gold from the dross?

How do I shut myself in with you, O Lord, when it's hard for me to rest?

How can I give you more Lord; how do I present my best?

 

Like shadows, my doubts haunt me day and night,

Trying to discourage me from enduring in the fight...

They cast darkeness over those of whom I care,

And time, and time again - I find myself victim to fear.

 

It's a battle I cannot win; unless I conquer it through you,

And there's days I feel, it's almost impossible to do!

In my weakness, I stand still and wait on Thee...

Praying in intercessory - For you to set me free!

 

My words...just rambling murmurs; only you can comprehend...

My thoughts...just a maze of confusion...only you can mend.

I claim your healing in this battle, I claim your strength on this day

I claim your direction on my life, I ask you to lead the way.

 

Am I being anxious? Am I seeking paths all on my own?

Am I forgetting to wait and listen? Am I forgetting to approach your throne?

In these few short moments, I find consolation and your peace rests on me;

I find answers for which I search, I am still - and your Spirit sets me FREE.

Merry Christmas! May this Christmas bring you the peace that only CHRIST can give...and just like Christ was born to us over 2000 years ago, may his Spirit be born in us afresh in Christmas 2005, and may we continue to grow in HIS likeness throughout 2006. (I'm asking alot, but it's a prayer not a Santa list - so, ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE!!!! )

God BLESS.

To the pen of a poet,
From the pen of a poet,
This poem does express my thoughts to Him for all of 2005,
And now we evolve into 2006 for Him to come alive! Continue to pour out to Him and He will replenish within!!!
