In today’s reading, God Himself proclaims in Psalm 46:10 “Be still and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.” No matter what is breaking around us we can know that even if we sit still and do nothing, God is in control. Our peace comes from God and God alone. The sooner we realize that, the happier and more content we will be.
