Be Still And Know

I hit the floor running this morning... and wondered whether or not there was actually enough coffee in the world to fuel the pace. I thought about asking God to let me borrow a couple hours this week and add it to today... And then I wondered which day I would rob... they're all filled up... overflowing... maxed out.

The one thing I didn't think of, (other than my rather frantic thoughts as to how to get there on time, and what in the world I was going to wear)... was the day itself. This day. Set aside to worship the One who owns all of our days... who made time... who holds our lives in His hands. The One who whispered in my ear this morning... "Be still, and know that I am God..."

Lord, turn my eyes to you, and not to the bedlam around me. Fill me up today, not with the things of this world... but with the One who formed it. I need more of you, Lord. Not more time... Or even coffee.. (well, one more cup, maybe.. :-) )

I'm still running, Lord... Perpetual motion.

But inside I will be still... (for just a moment...)

And know.]
