"Take The Offer; Take The Comfort" Psalm 46-48; Acts 28

What an introduction! I am God! Be still. Know this! Such a beautiful way to introduce the offer. Take this comfort: I am with you. I am for you. That is what you use to answer your fear. Compare this Psalm 46:10 to Exodus 14:13-14: The Lord will fight for you, you need only to be still. Let God work. The Hebrew word for "be still" means to let it fall; let the concerns hang down. Then, slack off, especially your hands. No exertion needed. Leave the matter with God. Oh! The Providence in all our problems. Oh! The Power in what we contemplate. Oh! That introduction! Take the comfort! PHOTO: On my way to Budapest. I've made it here. So many conversations with Staci. So many memories. Things I need to hang down. Maybe that's why a providential God brought me here. To find new power in what I contemplate. Make my paths straight as I go back to Austin. I have no idea what I will do but I know who I am.
