Wise Counsel.

When you are nervous and fidgety, wanting to interfere with God’s plans for your life, remember these three admonitions:

Be Still:

Psalm 46:10

Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations. I will be exalted in the earth!

Stand Still:

Exodus 14:13

And Moses said to the people. “Do not be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which He will accomplish for you today.

Sit Still:

Ruth 3:18

Then she said, “Sit still, my daughter, until you know how the matter will turn out; for the man will not rest until he has concluded the matter this day.”

Think it over:

If you read history you will find that the Christians who did most for the present world were precisely those who thought most of the next. It is since Christians have largely ceased to think of the other world that they have become so ineffective in this. …C. S. Lewis
