Sometimes I stand before God and I try so hard to put into words all the things that are running through my mind. It is in moments like these that I am reminded that sometimes it is best to just stand in silence before my King. He knows my heart and he knows my thoughts... so I quiet myself and I let the silence do the talking. In the silence I am able to marvel upon the beauty of my God, I am able to stand in awe of Him rather than be distracted by the many worries this life can bring. I know that in the silence He hears everything I want to say, but I am also able to hear all that he has to say. My prayer becomes a prayer of thanksgiving and a prayer of praise, simply glorifying God for who he is. In these moments I know that he is with me, I know that he surrounds me and his love for me is powerful.
The power of his love allows me to leave all my worries, all my pain, all my fears, all my questions... everything at his feet. You come to a point when you realize that maybe the reason you have that sinking feeling of ‘i have no control of my life’ is because you aren’t supposed to. You aren’t meant to plan your own way, HE is. Surrendering full control to him releases you of such heaviness, knowing that he will light the way. If you believe he has purpose for your life, you must trust that he will bring you there also. In this moment, you still have every ability to be thankful and joyful.
So in this moment, I stand still... knowing that the chaos cannot consume me. I allow my heart to be thankful, for I know that I am blessed. I allow my heart to find that Joy that cannot be taken from me, because every time I silence the world around me and stand still before my King, I am filled with deep true Joy. Praise be to my heavenly King, there is none like You.
