"Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth." The LORD Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. – Psalm 46:10,11
Given what the Psalmists says about observing the world around us in this chapter, it’s not just knowing God through sitting still or reading the Bible. When you are floating down a beautiful river in a canoe and the scenery takes your breath away, you are “knowing God”. Recognize Him in that moment. Know him through his Word, through his people, through the world he created. Listen for his voice. Be still. Don’t let life’s sirens and urgencies crowd God out of your life.
