"And He said, 'Go out an stand on the mount before the Lord' and behold, the Lord passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains and broke in pieces the rocks before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind; and after the wind an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake, and after the earthquake a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire; and after the fire [a sound of gentle stillness and] a still, small voice." - 1 Kings 19:11-12
The enemy's lies are bold and loud in our minds. Our worries drown our everything positive in our thoughts. Yet God is not in the loud and boisterous lies. He is in the gentle truth.
Do we stop and meditate on His word and just listen, or do we rush to our next worry? If we do not slow down our minds, focus on him, and be still and listen, I am afraid we will miss any and everything He is trying to tell us.
Stop and listen.
Jesus said "I am the Vine." We are to abide in and wait on Him as our everything. As a sufferer of many illnesses, both physical and mental, I have learned much through seeking Him. Tune in every week for a word of encouragement with a Scripture from the perspective of one who has found significant strength and healing and wisdom from those Scriptures.
