“Be still and know that I am God”. I read.
What does it all mean?
Stillness of heart is time in prayer
Worshipping our King.
Stillness of heart is also peace
Knowing He’s the One
Laying it down and walking away
Knowing He’ll get it all done.
Stillness of heart is gratitude
And humble thanking Him
For all He does tho we don’t deserve
And for when our light grows dim.
A stillness of heart means my God is there
When all seems to be going wrong
And I feel His loving hand in mine
And He makes this heart beat strong.
I thank you Lord, for my stillness of heart
For without You, it would not be.
For You are my peace, and contentment when all
The world blows wild and free.
When turmoil surrounds and disappointments flood
And I don’t even know where to start
I get on my knees and I know You are there
For You are my stillness of heart

as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.

Deanna,

You've written a beautiful poem that brings hope, peace, and "stillness of heart" to the soul as one reads it.

What came to my mind as I read your poem was the image of Jesus standing in the boat tossed and turned by the storm and saying to the troubled waters, "Peace be still... Peace be still."

Enjoyed reading your poem very much and, again, God bless you my friend.

-Bob
