You need only to be Still


Psalm 46:10:"Be still, and know that I am God” 
Isiah 40:31: “But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.” 
Exodus 14:14 "The Lord will fight for you, you need only to be still"  


“I’ll be by your side whenever you fall
In the dead of night whenever you call
And please don’t fight
These hands that are holding you.
My hands are holding you”
~ Tenth Avenue North ‘By Your Side’



I’ve felt particularly led to write something for those who are in need or going through difficult times. The verses and song lyrics above are what came to mind as I was trying to get my thoughts down on paper – then they became a big part of what I was writing about.

Feeling it unnecessary to have a long drawn-out post I simply want to say that you are in my prayers, whoever you are/wherever you are. :)

"Strengthen me, oh Lord, with Your mighty hand
Because with everything that’s happened, strength fails me yet again
Let this pass and be far from me
Give me peace of mind in this time of need.
I feel deeply burdened and emotionally distraught
However it is then You whisper “Be still, and know that I am God.”
Though I am weak and cannot feel You around me now
You’ve faithfully shown You’ll always be close somehow
Father, help me to place my trust in You
For I know that no matter what You’ll see me through."
