Be Still

The last ten days have offered me the unique opportunity to "be still" and think about my relationship with God. As I have reflected on this relationship, I have realized that I need to slow down and let Him be with me throughout my day and not be so "busy" that I don't listen to his loving guidance. I like to be independent, to show how strong and capable I am, and to keep my head above water through my own dog paddling. I need to remember that everything I have is from God and that without Him I am nothing. When I let Him into my life, I am able to let go of my selfish pride and focus on what matters most. Then, I truly enjoy the moments that make up my life.
