life is filled with busyness. friday at last! to-day, I have been frantically trying to finish all my homework assignments thinking of the blissful thought of the weekend that has been driving me forward this whole week. oh, what shall I accomplish on my agenda?
knitting. lettering writing. baking. blogging. card making. birthday present brain-storming. etsy browsing. pinterest pinning. photograph editing. skyping? tutorial hunting. spanish speaking. french translating. e-mail writing {more like apology writing :)}. inspiration board making. facebook updating. more knitting.
but then it hit me when I had a chance to catch my breath {in the shower of course :)}.
be still. there is a healer whose love is deeper than the sea.
what?
be still.
just be still? but, but -
for you see, I was too busy being - well busy - to take a moment of my time and just to BE STILL and acknowledge that the Lord I serve is GOD.
He is mighty, holy, awesome, wonderful, and is worthy to be praised.
so take a little time, even a few minutes, to acknowledge that the Lord whom we serve is God.
as a dear friend says, "keep looking up because He's looking down." :) {{love you, bethany! :)}}
love in Him,
Grace

That is why I go walking... it's my "be still" time... that is why I make sure to set aside a minimum of 15 minutes each morning just to read the Bible... things like that are "be still" moments... :)
ReplyDeleteThank you SO much for this reminder, Grace! I have had so much to do lately that this reminder is a good thing for me to remember. I need to remember to slow down and just STOP. Thanks again!
ReplyDeleteYou are very much right dear Goose! I too find myself to busy to simply sit back and laugh and watch life go on. Thanks for sharing dearie!

Just stumbled across your blog, and also noticed that you write on a blog entitled "one stitch at a time". What a coincidence, I write at "a stitch in time"! :) have a lovely week.
