Practice Stillness in God’s Presence
He says, “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”—Psalm 46:10 (NIV)
Sometimes the most productive prayer times can be as simple as quietly sitting with God, being still and feeling His presence. Like good friends enjoying the moment—words aren’t necessary. Savor the silence.
Lord, I sometimes forget the importance of being still. Thank You for these precious times where You grace me with silence that renews my mind.
