Be still, my soul

All that feeds my busy pride, cast it evermore aside.

Bid my will to Thine submit, lay me humbly at Thy feet.

===============================

Psalms 46

God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble.

Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change And though the mountains slip into the heart of the sea;

Though its waters roar and foam, Though the mountains quake at its swelling pride. Selah.

There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, The holy dwelling places of the Most High.

God is in the midst of her, she will not be moved; God will help her when morning dawns.

The nations made an uproar, the kingdoms tottered; He raised His voice, the earth melted.

The LORD of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our stronghold. Selah.

Come, behold the works of the LORD, Who has wrought desolations in the earth.

He makes wars to cease to the end of the earth; He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two; He burns the chariots with fire.

"Cease striving and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth."

The LORD of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our stronghold. Selah.

===============================

Thankful for the prayers of the older, wiser folks in the church... I need them and thank Him for that. Just a bit (not much) irritated with school performance, my lack of patience and discipline, and not knowing the future (haha). There are just certain things that lag in the back of my mind. Knowing that I need to get them out and deal with them, I let them sit there and rot until they bother me like this.

And that's about time I gave them over to Christ.

May the peace of Christ dwell within me and you richly today.
