BE STILL BEFORE THE LORD -

"Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him; do not fret
when men succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked
schemes. Refrain from anger and turn from wrath; do not fret--it
leads only to evil. For evil men will be cut off, but those who
hope in the Lord will inherit the land." Psalm 37:7-9

Are your circumstances that you are facing seem overwhelming? What
should you do? Pray, do not worry, and trust in the Lord. Believe
in His love for you, your spouse and your family. Believe in His
power knowing that He can do far more than anyone can imagine.
Your Lord can rebuild and restore your marriage if you will only "Be
still and wait patiently."

We received a poem from a stander who has given us permission to use

STILL -

Though my dreams fall apart
And my world crashes down,
Still I will worship You.

Though my husband betray me,
And my children rebel,
Still I will trust in You.

Though my friends turn against me
And loneliness screams in my soul,
Still I believe in You.

Though my days are too long
And sleepless nights never end,
Still I have hope in You.

Though I fight back my tears
And my heart bleeds with pain,
Still I will sing praises to You.

Though all promises are broken
And lies seem as truth,
Still I will be faithful to You.

Though no love can I find
In ones I held so dear,
Still I will ever know Your love for me.

Though I feel I can't go on
And the world offers relief,
Still I will wait upon You.

Though I reach my lowest point
And I feel I can go no lower,
Still I will humble myself before You.

Though my enemy tempt me
And offer promises untold,
Still You alone will be my God.

Though all may seem lost
With no rainbow in sight,
Still I will believe in miracles.

Though I am battle-weary
And fall down to the ground,
Still You are my Weapon, My Shield.

Though everything is against me
And it seems I've lost all odds,
Still Your promises I hold fast to.

"Be still, and know that I am God."
I will be still,
For You are my God!
