be still my soul

lately, ive been learning a lot about silence & solitude...i've been learning that i'm not very obediant, and i'm more likely to not follow God in what he calls me to. i don't want to be offended by him, i want to know his heart and i want my vision to be aligned with his. i want to be pure and i want to call out to him and have him reveal things to me that i do not know (jer. 33:3). im learning that i can be around a crowd of people and still feel alone unless i am spending the time i need in intimacy with the Father. so ive been trying out this whole silence/solitude thing. its been so good. its good to take the pillow out from in front of Jesus' face and silence myself before him, seperating myself from the world and listen to his voice for a change. its good to stand in his counsel. its good to know him. its good to seek him. for he'll be found by those who seek him. i love who he is. i love being silent and alone with him.

"Be still my soul and know he is God."
