Psalm 47:10
Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.

How moving is this verse? Be still, right now in my life were I'm at, the two words of "Be still", means to calm down, stop rushing, stop being unsure. In my work, in my home life, in my life with my children, and especially in my marriage. I am learning to be still. Calm down, take my time. How relieving it is to know this and to put this into action.

The rest of the verse speaks volumes and fills my heart and mind with the comfort that He is God. He is the first, the middle, and the end. I love knowing that God is God, he is to be exalted above all things, all nations, world leaders, world markets, the world entirely. He will be seen and praised all over the world, there will be know one seeing that won't see Him, that won't see His glory, see what they have missed, and are going to miss, there will be those that see who He is and the what it is like to experience His almighty glory, and to finally bow down at the feet of our Lord, our savior, the one truth, that has held true and will never fade

The song, "I can only imagine", says things so true, I can only imagine.

Friends, can you imagine, can you imagine what it will be like. I can't imagine to the fullest. I believe that our strong and inventive brains that He Himself made can fully comprehend the reality of His glory. I can't, but I love the idea of trying, I love to imagine. I can tell you, that when I do, tears go to me eyes, and love, and fills my heart. I am jealous of those that I've known that have past on, because they are seeing Him now, they are experiencing Him in ways we can't comprehend. I know though that His is coming.

He is coming for us,............

Be still, know that I am God, I'm in charge, I know everything, you will be fine, all is good with me, you may be in hard times, but I am hear. You may not see me, you may not hear me, but I am hear; be still.

To honor our God, our Lord and Savior, we must be still, we must hold fast to Him and His words, His ways, for it is cause of Him we have breath, we have life, we have what we have. I have a song that is tops in my book, it is sung by the group Third Day, (offering).

Magnificent Holy Father, I stand in awe of all I see. Of all the things You have created, but still You choose the think of me. Who am I that You should suffer, Your very life to set me free, the only ting that I can give You is the life You gave to me. This my offering, dear Lord, this is my offering to You, God, and I will give You my life for it is all I have to give, because You gave Your life for me. I stand before You at this alter, so many have given You more, i may not have much I can offer, Yet what i have is truly Yours, this is my offering........................


Lord, I give you this day, I give you my life for truly is all that I give to you. My Lord, You have given all things to us, and all You want is our love, forgive me Father for not giving all my love back to You, I ask that You lift me up and I ask for strength to become the man that You intended me to be. Father thank you for Your love, and grace, Your sacrifice. I pray for all this and for all of those that read this in the name of Your son, our savior, Jesus Christ.
amen
