Peace Be Still


Peace Be Still

Why do you look at the confusion around you says the Lord, when you know that none of it will bring you peace? For here I stand in the eye of the storm calling you to me to find your rest. My child, you do not have the strength or the ability to calm the storm around you. You can only come into my presence and then allow me to bring peace to the storm.

Consider my disciples who tried to outrun the storm and to fight it with all the knowledge they knew about sailing. However it was only when they came to me and I stood up on their behalf, did the storm calm down. And so as you look at your life and you see these things that are quickly getting out of control, stop struggling with them in your natural strength!

Stop trying to fight these things with your works and abilities. Run to me instead! Let me fight the storm on your behalf. Let me cover you with my hand and bring the protection that you need. Do you not see that I desire to cover and protect you? It was not me that has brought these things into your life. It was not me that wanted to see you suffer or struggle. In fact many of these things you called upon yourself. However I am not punishing you child! Instead I want to help you. I want to give you the strength that you need to stand up again.

I want to bring the storm to a place of stillness and I want to take you across this phase of your life and onto solid ground again. Will you trust me child? Will you take my hand? Come now and rest with me and then watch as I do in an instant, what you have struggled against for so long, says the Lord.
