Be Still And Know that God Loves You

I've been out for a while-taking care of business; life was challenging me and me, rising above the challenge and conquering some goals and just some things that wasn't a goal but became one anyway.  I had learned to master some things before it mastered me!

Today, I decided to take a few moments to sit and write some of my thoughts on this blog.  As I gather my thoughts together I'm listening to a worship CD by Shikinah Glory, "Live": quietly with no television on, no phone calls (turned the ringer off), just listening to what the Spirit of the Lord is saying to me for today.

The Lord started speaking to me about some things that I need to address, get busy on, and continue to "plow" with prayer.  Remaining focus is the key to not getting sidetracked or off the path to your destiny; for that matter, even for what you have allocated to do for that day!  You know, I tweeted about this breifly: When was the last time you turned the tv off and gotten quiet?  When was the last time you picked up your bible and read that verse and meditated on that scripture?  Is it that too much silence disturbs you?  Maybe the Lord wants you to just stop talking and arguing, and "gotta give my opinion", and just be quiet (or as our parents would say, "Shut up and listen")!  He's trying to instruct you about your child.  He wants to give you advice about your business.  The Lord cares about what you care about and just want to let you know it--He's got the situation under control!  He even wants to counsel you about your marriage.  Will you take time to listen to Him and hear what He has to say to you about your circumstance/situation?

Let the Peace of God be your Blanket today! 
Let the Love of God be your Covering today!
Let the Counsel of God be your Comforter today!
Let the Messiah, be your BFF today!

So, what am I saying?  Just get quiet, be still, stop talking and allow the Holy Spirit of God to speak to you today.  He only wants what's best, great, grand, tremendous, awesome for you, to you, through you, and because of you!

I'm reminded of the show, "Touch by an Angel" and the words that come to mind is, "God Loves You!"
He really does.

God Loves You! 

Embrace !
