“Be still, and know that I am God” —Psalm 46:10, (NIV)
Most of us read that verse and hear an impossible instruction. Be still? The house is loud. The day is full. Silence isn't on the schedule.
But look at where the line comes from. Psalm 46 isn't set in a quiet room. Mountains fall into the sea. Waters roar and foam. Nations rage and kingdoms collapse. And then, over all of it — Be still, and know that I am God.
Stillness was never the absence of noise. It's attention. It's giving one thing your focus instead of forty.
Put on headphones and let a psalm bring the stillness — while the laundry runs, while you walk, while you sit outside. Listen to God's Word with the Bible Audio App.
