Bible Question:
In the NIV this verse is rendered, "Be still and know . . ." So much of the time we are "striving" to praise, sing, pray, serve etc. which are all forms of worship, but do we neglect being "still?" How do you put this into practice? |
Bible Answer: Mommapbs. There is a Gospel illustrationthat applies here. Luke 10:38-42 Now as they were traveling along, He entered a village; and a woman named Martha welcomed Him into her home. She had a sister called Mary, who was seated at the Lord's feet, listening to His word. But Martha was distracted with all her preparations; and she came up to Him and said, "Lord, do You not care that my sister has left me to do all the serving alone? Then tell her to help me." But the Lord answered and said to her, "Martha, Martha, you are worried and bothered about so many things; but only one thing is necessary, for Mary has chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her."
