Be Still
by Jody R Goode
4/12/82



My mind is like a turbulent sea
each wave and splash of water
bringing frustration,
anxiousness.

My God says, "be still".

This day, can there be found any good in it?
Each turn I make I find more
trouble,
confusion.

My Father says, "be still".

The world, moving so fast,
too fast.
Where are they going?
Where am I going?

My Comforter says, "be still".

I feel alone - though there are crowds surrounding me.
Will I get lost?
Who will find me?

My Friend says, "I am with you, be still".

The Lord is my God, my Father, my Comforter, my Friend...

In Him I (will) find rest and peace.

With Him I find the power to
...be still.

Love it! Javin read it aloud for us and his emphasis on 'Be still' found his shoulder going up and down. It is a great reminder to us today. Be Still! Trust God to work it all out...

A very good poem, Jody. I've often found 'being still' to be the hardest thing to do, even when I'm physically still. My mind and heart rush off in a hundred different directions with a thousand different anxieties, but as you said, God commands us to be still.
