Be Still: Finding the Quiet and Security of God’s Presence

Description

Pursuing Stillness as a Way of Life, Not as a Series of Stolen Moments "Be Still, and Know That I am God" is one of the most powerful verses in the Bible (Ps. 46:10). It succinctly defines the relationship God wants His people to have with Him. Yet the frantic pace of women's lives produces what Elizabeth Hoekstra terms "spiritual attention deficit disorder." How can the Lord minister to women, teach them, and be their God when they aren't even paying attention? Do you walk through the responsibilities of your life with an inner peace, confidence, and conviction? Or, do you barrel through with a harried, frazzled, and disorganized approach? This book will help you stop the crisis-dodging life as you are encouraged and enabled to embrace stillness in the Lord as a lifestyle. You will learn to recognize your own spiritual inattentiveness, to be content in how God designed you, to be confident in God-given wisdom, and finally to trust God's personal faithfulness in your life. "Hoekstra's thoughtful, practical insights encourage stillness in a noisy world. Like too much salt she provokes a thirst quenched only by 'still' water" Jan Carlberg, Gordon College ISBN:9780764221866
