Be Still

Be still my anxious heart.
If only, right? If only we could just tell our hearts to be still and they would be. If only with those two words our minds and hearts could release the weight of the stresses, worries and concerns of the known and unknown.
The radical thing is that those two words can actually calm the raging seas in our lives. These two words hold real weight and ability for change when and only when the One who says them has any and all power, knowledge and love for us in those situations that cause us to worry and stress.
Oftentimes we need that affirmed to us over and over again. Here are two verses to cling to that assure us of just why we can be still just because God calls us to.

Obey and Let God Move

Obey and Let God Move

Do you ever have that moment when you want to obey God, you want to stand for justice, you want to show love… but you don’t know how people might react?
You’re nervous if people will think you’re awkward or a goodie-two-shoes or what have you?
Maybe you’re worried people will laugh — and this fear lasts WAY past elementary school.
These can worries that last from a young age all the way through the working field and beyond.

You’re called to obey.

Rooting Out Pride Part 2 – Pride Comes Before the Fall

Pride tricks us into thinking it’s for us because it puts us first, but ultimately, its blinding ability to see only our perspective, or to put our perspective above those of others, gets in our way.

God HATES pride.

God is not for the proud.

In part one of Rooting Out Pride – What Pride Can Do, we noted these two verses

James 4:6 says, “God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”

Proverbs 16:5 is very firm when it states, “Everyone who is arrogant in heart is an abomination to the LORD; be assured, he will not go unpunished.”

Ultimately, God brings low the proud and raises the humble.

Whether it be out of its own consequences or directly from God Himself, we know that a life and way and walk of pride leads to destruction. It will come before a fall.
