In moments of trial and uncertainty, silence can be our greatest strength. When Jesus stood before Herod, He chose silence over defense, knowing that true power doesn’t always need words.
His stillness wasn’t weakness—it was a demonstration of profound trust in God’s plan. Christ lived in perfect peace, and offers peace to each of us too.
Psalm 46:10 invites us into that same stillness: “Be still and know that I am God.” It is in our quiet moments that we connect with him. By cutting through the noise and distractions of life, we create space to truly experience God’s presence.
Take a moment today to pause, breathe, and embrace the quiet. Let the stillness remind you that you’re not alone, and that there’s a higher power guiding your path.
Through silence, we find clarity; through stillness, we find strength. Allow yourself to be comforted and consumed in the calm, and let God’s Spirit refresh your soul.
Be Still. Be Blessed!
