When I was asked if I would be willing to read and review, Be Still and Trust by Stacey Pardoe, I said yes without hesitation. My desire was to help a fellow blogger share her book with others.
But little did I know it was the book I needed.
Stillness is defined as “freedom from agitation”, or “absence of movement.”
The pace of life makes it virtually impossible to be free of either agitation or movement. Busyness has become the trademark of most of our lives. Between distractions and a plethora of daily activities, being still can evade us.
Be Still and Trust brings a reset. In this book, you will find fifty devotions designed to help us make a habit out of being still each day. And that is so it. We must be intentional in stilling ourselves to hear from God.
In this devotional book, you will find fifty readings which will guide to stay focused on God’s presence with us each day. Each reading is a reminder of the way God desires to meet with us on the pages of Scripture.
Some of the topics covered are:
- trusting God ion the unknown
- the purpose of quiet time
- how to make wise decisions
- peace in life’s battles
- exchanging worry for trust
Having worked my way, in the quietness of my mornings, I found the book encouraging, bringing a quiet and restful start to my days. You will too.
Be still and
and discover rest
and renewal in God.
“God calls us to set aside quiet moments in his presence because he wants to connect with us.”
(Stacey Pardoe)
Michele Morin’s post, Living with Peace of Soul and Firm Conviction, brought a powerful and borrowed prayer. The words were strengthening and comforting. They also remind us all – “Nothing that happens today (or any day) will come as a surprise to God.”
Come, sit a spell. Bring your coffee, your posts, and your thoughts. If you link up, kindly visit those who have drawn up a seat around you.
