Seriously Still



You want me to do what?
Be what?
Be still?
Seriously?

Lord I have so much to do today.
Beds to make, clothes to fold, and the list goes on.

You want me to be still right this moment and be with You. 
I hear you and am coming.

It is my deepest desire today to know You more. To have You speak to my heart today. To share with You my dreams and the fears and doubts that come along with those dreams today. To talk to You about one of my girls that is going through one of the hardest times in her life and beg for You to heal her. To thank You for these beautiful men both big and small that You gave to me. To ask to be the wife and momma that they so deserve.

Sometimes it takes my breath away when I think of how much You desire this time with me. Sometimes when I come all I can do is weep, feeling an overwhelming gratitude that You are mine and I am Yours and this moment in time is ours.

So I am working on the whole be still thing. When I get too busy, I remember the day before when we came together and how You spoke to me.

So today I am still...

Seriously.

Be still, and know that I am God
Psalm 46:10
