I play a game with some of the 5 year olds I teach. I give them different commands (run, walk, jump, ride a bike, sleep, eat, etc) and than yell out freeze. The first one to move gets knocked out and the game continues. The winner gets a sticker. heh

Sometimes I have to say freeze over and over before they stop. Not because they don't understand, but they just don't want to be still. They want a different command.

I'm so much like that. I can be still, but I don't want to. I can imagine God's frustration with us when we are running, eating, working, and generally living life while He is saying over and over, "be still!"

So the other day I went to the beach to be still.

"Be still, and know that I am God"
Psalm 46:10



  • I rediscovered how nice it is to have complete peace.
  • I read and I prayed. And it was good.
  • I learned that Simon & Garfunkle is fantastic photography music.
  • And I found an excellent coffee shop.

    complete peace...something I haven't had for awhile and what I wish for. But instead, I ignore it and waste my time doing something useless. I should do that on my next free day!

    and nice pictures.

    Great post.
    Someone has been wanting to speak to my heart for awhile now, guess I should stop and listen to Him...

    I knew that I heard of Simon & Garfunkle somewhere before but couldn't remember when. So I had to look them up, and now I remember that Dan Pallman had used them in W2 before. Garfunkle is not an easy name to be translated...
