The strength of stillness lies in what it reveals. When we stop striving, we begin to see God clearly.
Anxiety blurs our vision, but stillness sharpens it. Stillness is not weakness; it is strength under control.
Psalm 46is written amid chaos—nations rage, kingdoms fall, and the earth trembles. Yet in the middle of turmoil, God speaks with calm authority:
“Be still, and know that I am God”
This command is not an invitation to passivity but a call to spiritual composure. God is not asking His people to do nothing. He is instructing them to cease striving, to stop fighting battles that belong to Him.
True stillness is not found in silence alone but in surrender, a quiet confidence rooted in knowing who God is.
