Here is the irony in this term"BE STILL" While we must take the initiative to fulfill our responsibilities and live our lives, the uncertainties of living in a world of sin and woe will continually challenge us. Personal initiative is no substitute for reliance upon God (cf. James 4:13-17).This command--"BE STILL"--forces us to think on two things: that we are finite, and that God is infinite.That being the case, we need to drop our hands, go limp, relax, and"chill out." Christian people ought to"come, behold the works of Jehovah," (v. 8) that we may enjoy a calm confidence in Him who gave us His Son."BE STILL" because of what you know about God.~ Leaving you with blessings and love, smiles and hugs~ Linda
