Knowing

“Be still and know that I am God.”

–     Psalm 46:10

Yeah, yeah — so sue me.  I usually leave the overtly Christian stuff for Easter and Christmas.

It’s just that I can’t get this verse out of my head this week — a week of ridiculous pace and frenetic activity.

Out of balance.  Out of time.  Out of energy.  Out of whack.

Still.

Stillness.

Skipping the flight until tomorrow morning.  Sitting.  Reading.  Breathing.  Smiling.

There is a sense of peace from knowing — really knowing — and it’s easiest to find peace when we’re willing — NOT able, because we’re always able, really — willing to be still.

And know.
