"Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth."

(Psalm 46:10)

This verse randomly came up as I was just driving home and the battery for my ipod died, so I switched the stations around and ended up listening to K-Love on my whole drive long from a church meeting (which is a whopping 15 minute drive (yup...that's the town I live in, and my church is on the "far side" of town)), and after a song finished playing, the announcer read this verse and it spoke to me.

Of course, I have heard and read this verse many times before, but I love those big reminder moments that God gives us every now and then, don't you?

As I have been praying and seeking God's face about some of the new opportunities that have been arising in my life lately, this fit in perfectly. I currently have a mix of emotions of fear, joy and unpatienceness (if that is even a word), as I am realizing that soon, if I already am not doing this, I will need to take a big leap in my faith and carry on with what God has in His plan for my life. I am realizing that a stage of my life is ending, and a new one is on the verge of being born and that I need to be still and allow God to take over.

I am confident and trusting in God, something that in the past has been hard for me to do, I always want to take some of the control, but God has been teaching me that He is molding me and wanting me to give it all to Him, no matter what direction He takes me to, He is in ultimate control of every aspect of my life.
