Be still and know that I am God

The five sisters.

Today's Choice Gleanings reading:

And the Lord God answered me and said. Habakkuk 2:2

Habakkuk took his burdens and his doubts to the Lord. From his watchpost, his vantage point high above the city, and above the people, the problems and the voices, he waited with a hearing heart for God’s revelation. And the Lord answered Habakkuk.

Habakkuk asked, not shaking his fist with demands, but with a heart eager to better know and understand his God. And God answered him. —M. MacMullen

Be still and know that I am God;
Come find your strength in the quiet place;
Be still and know that I am God.
—R. Hamilton

Christ wants the best. He in the far-off ages Once claimed the firstling of the flock, the finest of the wheat, And still He asks His own with with gentlest pleading To lay their highest hopes and and brightest talents at His feet. He'll not forget the feeblest service, humblest love; He only asks that of our store we give to Him The best we have. Christ gives the best. He takes the hearts we offer; And fills them with His glorious beauty, joy and peace; And in His service as we're growing stronger, The calls to great achievements still increase. The richest gifts for us on earth, or in the heavens above, Are hid in Christ. In Jesus we receive The best we have. And is our best too much? O friend, let us remember How once our Lord poured out His soul for us, And in the prime of Hi
