Key Scripture
Psalm 46:10
Be still, and know that I am God.
Devotional
Noise can fill every available space and still leave the soul empty.
Stillness reminds us that God is God and we are not. We can release the illusion that everything depends on our constant motion.
Being still may feel uncomfortable because it reveals how restless we have become. Yet silence creates space to notice what our hurried lives conceal.
You do not have to manufacture a dramatic spiritual moment. Simply become present. God is already near.
Let stillness become an act of trust. The world will continue moving while you sit with God.
