"Be still and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations. I will be exalted in the earth. The lord almighty is with us. The God of Jacob is our fortress." Psalms 46:10
Life will be busy, things are bound to be hectic. Life can be stressful and subject to endless change and pressure. What will happen next? How are will we make ends meet? Something I've learned in the last year and that I find applicable to every area of life, is that we don't need to know all the answers. If we are busy being busy and in constant worry, God’s voice can be nearly impossible to hear. So what can you do? Jesus says to simply... Be still.
Before we get caught up in the craziness of our lives, we need to take a step back and be still. Take that extra moment to put a stop to our day and be with God. If we are busy being busy and in constant worry, God’s voice can be nearly impossible to hear. But, it is during our purposeful inactivity that we will see God's perfect productivity. Our problems will seem smaller once we realize that our God is so much greater. He has a plan for our lives. We need to take that moment, surrender and be open to what He has set aside for each of us. So, What does this look like for our everyday lives? Let go, be quiet, and be physically & mentally still.The trip is a joint venture with FreddyLink, Smythe Street Cathedral Family Ministries, and World Vision. We will be sending a team of adults, children and youth to go to the community FreddyLink has been supporting for the past 5 years.We desire to take our children and families to partner with our Haitian partners in serving their community and learn how to encourage our own children to be leaders in our community. This is our journey.
