“Be Still And Know…”

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

At the beginning of this new day, we do well if we pause to consider with awe and gratitude the power of the God who loves us with His everlasting love.

The Psalmist has captured a glimpse of God's mighty power in Psalm 46:8-11:

Come and see what the Lord has done, the desolations he has brought on the earth. He makes wars cease to the ends of the earth. He breaks the bow and shatters the spear; he burns the shields with fire.

He says, “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”

The Lord Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.

Today, let us worship the God of immeasurable power. The God who made everything that exists. The God who sees the sparrow fall from the tree branch. The God who loves and cares for us even more than He cares for the sparrow.

Here’s an appropriate musical reminder that I hope you will enjoy:
