An old sea captain once said that when the storms get severe and they are
threatened with disaster, that they turn the ship into a certain position and
fix it there. Then they weather out the gales, holding fast. There is a time to hold
onto the Lord with all your might. Prayer does not seem to work, for all has
been prayed. Faith seems to fail and the heavens are as brass. Then stand fast!
wait for the storm to abait. Hold onto God, lash your self to the mast, for you
will come through. The black clouds will lift and the thrashing winds will wear
themselves out with their fury. You can't do anything but wait for this attack
to pass, for it will pass. Nothing can move a child of God who has fixed their
heart on His mercy and might. God will prevail for you, He is on your side,
working behind the scenes, and bringing new strength through it all. You have to
pass through this, there is no going round, but you will come out stronger than
when you went in!
'My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing
and give praise' Ps 57:7
'Be Still'
'Be Still And Know That He is God'
Symbolism: The Dove is the Holy Spirit. The shadow of wings is the covering of His love. The seat is a place waiting for you to occupy it. The Lily in the pool is the purity of Jesus.The trees are the 'Mighty One's' who watch over you.
YOU ARE INVITED TO ENTER IN!
There is a place, a tranquil, still place right in God's heart. He invites you to come and sit awhile and meditate, listening for His still small voice. Over you are the wings of God, shadowing and covering your life as you sit on the seat prepared for you. The world around is full of trauma and confusion, but in the midst of it all you can find Him and gaze awhile on His beauty and experience His peace.
