When Being Still Was Not in the Plan



Waiting is not always easy. I am waiting to have a total knee replacement on August 11. It would be easy to get impatient--to waste this precious time that God has set before me--

Instead, I want to embrace it--to use it wisely--to grow in grace and patience.

And believe me, I realize how blessed I am.  Just a small look around at social media or the newspaper to see that there are those, myriads of those who have challenges far exceeding this small bump in the road of life that I am experiencing.

During this time of "stillness," I want to grow more like my Savior each day.



He says, “Be still, and know that I am God;
    I will be exalted among the nations,
    I will be exalted in the earth.”
Psalm 46:10
