We can agree unanimously, we all are facing some kind of storm. A few are just going into and others are on the other side.
But rest assured, Jesus is in the boat.
He’s right there with you.
Speaking, “Peace. Be still.”
All we have to do is BE STILL.
He will do the rest, my friend.
“Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding.
He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.
Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall:
but they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.”
Isaiah 40:28-31
Amen! Renee, thank you so much for sharing your post with its rich, encouraging message. There are times when I need to hit the “pause” button. Jesus waits with His Word of peace.

He sure will do it, Sis!! Sometimes, it seems like we go through a “season” of storms, where we come out of one and right back into another. BUT GOD! I sure wouldn’t want to navigate these waters without Him! ❤

Oh God is good!! This is the fourth time I’ve come across the words, “be still” over the past week and a half…it was the theme for our youth group retreat at the end of October, I came across it the other day on a Bible verse I had written down on scratch paper, my pastor used the words yesterday in his sermon and now I read it in your post today…so good!!!

You got to love those God Wink moments, Alicia! He was definitely speaking a Word to your heart and over your life! The same has been happening here. I just got done reading a devotion via email, and there it was… again…Be still and cast your cares upon Him. Those two verses have been speaking to me several different times. I pray God takes care of whatever concerns us both! In Jesus Name!! 🙏🏼💜🙌🏼

I just had to update you, Alicia! This whole weekend, I encountered more moments with “peace. Be still.” Songs sung at church, during the sermon, devotions….God is so good! All we have to do is our part. Pray. Seek His face. Read His Word. And trust. He will bring the victory and the change our lives need. Blessings my friend! Praying with you!💜
