Be-Still-And-Know-That-I-Am-God

Be still, Quiet your mind, Rest your soul, and know that I am God. Though I sit at the right hand of my Father, I am knelt beside you when you cry out my name. I control humanity and all that is produced, and I walk beside you when you walk alone. My grace encompasses the earth and my mercy extends to every soul, and I explore the deepest parts of your heart.

I am great and you are small, but as you reach for me and call my name, I rise up, grant your redemption, and offer you unfailing love. For you are my child and I am your Father, your journey is without blame and you are not forsaken. I give to you strength and offer you grace. I show you mercy for I am your redeemer with whom you give your trust. I reach out my hands and reveal the scars that remain, for my shed blood is your salvation and my love for you is written upon the tables of your heart.
