Zechariah 2:13 - Be Still

"Be still before the Lord, all mankind, because he has roused himself from his holy
dwelling.”" (Zechariah 2:13, NIV)

"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." (Psalm 37:7, NIV)

"“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, NIV)

Too often, when I take action, it is for my glory and not for God's. When I am still and allow God to direct, He gets the glory.

I am learning that I don't have to figure it all out. I don't have to have the entire plan mapped out. I need to allow my next step to be guided and then, and only then, does the direction of the step after become important.

"Give us this day our daily bread" is how Jesus taught us to pray. One step, one day at a time.
