TIMES OF STILLNESS
Stop fighting by yourself. There are situations in which our strength is not enough and our ideas do not flow with the same clarity. It’s during these moments that we need to take a time of stillness to listen to God’s voice and clear direction.
Don’t depend on your own knowledge neither ignore what you might be feeling right now during the situation you are going through. It’s better to give yourself the chance to rest and express what you are feeling while you rest in the Lord.
God doesn’t get tired of listening to you nor spending time with you. He wants you to take the time to rest so that you can listen to Him speak to you. Many times we say, “Speak to me Father” but we can’t hear Him because the turmoil inside of us stop us from hearing the Father.
You need to give yourself the chance to lament and unplug before God; it’s not bad to do this, it is necessary. The primary source of rest that you need comes from the Heavenly Father. Therefore, do not try to appear to be self-sufficient, instead let God fight for you while you rest in His stillness.
Think about it:
What feelings or thoughts have you been ignoring that you need to bring before God?
How long has it been that you don’t take a time of stillness with your Heavenly Father?
