Psalms 46:10
“Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations. I will be exalted on the earth.”

LOOK CLOSER
This is not a quiet-room quote.
Right before it, the psalm describes wars, broken weapons, and nations in turmoil.
God's answer is not panic.
Stop. Notice who is still God.
SOUND FAMILIAR?
Your day may not contain armies.
But it can still feel like a battle: messages, deadlines, money, bad news, and a mind that will not slow down.
Stillness is not pretending nothing is wrong.
It is refusing to let the noise become your god.
ONE SMALL STEP
Put your phone down for sixty seconds.
Breathe slowly. Read Psalms 46:10 once.
Do not solve everything in that minute. Just remember who is God.
REFLECT
What noise do you most need to pause today?
