Day 10: To be Still

         Copyright © 2016 by Michelle Lores

           

 

Bumblebees buzzing over flowers so busy.

Fireflies caught in a jar in a tizzy.

So many things to do in a day…

Lord, help me stop that I may just stay—

Right where You are—

In Your Arms unafraid.

 

What is my cup of SonShine today?

To stop and stay in the presence of God.

 

It is so easy to get so busy that we miss what is important.

We must slow down enough and be still enough to listen and hear God’s voice.

When there is so much going on, and our minds are so cluttered with things that will not last into eternity, we often miss God’s guidance and the voice of His love—I am speaking of me.  Can you relate?

 

 

It is so good to slow down enough to listen, to hear, to be in the presence of God.

It washes me, and makes me feel renewed.

I need to be renewed every day.

I need to be reminded every day that God loves me.

And I need to slow down enough to listen.

I wish I always did that.

I don’t.

But I need to.

        

 

So that is my cup of SonShine for today:

To stop and stay in the presence of God and to be still and listen.

 

“I love You, Lord.

I need You.

Thank You so much for this love that is bubbling up inside of me.

I know it is from just being in Your Presence.

You are SO AMAZING!

I love You, Lord.

I love You.

There is none like You.

My heart sings,

‘Lord, there is none like You!’

I praise You, Heavenly Father.

I love You.

Thank You for loving me.

In Jesus’ Name I pray, Amen.”
