"STAND STILL!, my soul, for so the Lord commands; E'en when thy way seems blocked, leave it in His wise hands; His arm is mighty to divide the wave. Stand still, my soul, stand still - and thou shalt see how God can work the impossible for thee, for with a great deliverance He doth save!
"Be not impatient, but in stillness stand, even when compassed round on every hand, in ways thy spirit does not comprehend. God cannot clear thy way till thou art still, that He may work in thee His blessed will; and all thy heart and will to Him do bend.
"BE STILL!, my soul, for just as thou art still, can God reveal Himself to thee; until through thee His love and light and life can freely flow; in stillness God can work through thee and reach the souls around thee. He then through thee can teach His lessons, and His power-in-weakness show.
"BE STILL! --- A deeper step in faith and rest! "Be still and KNOW!", thy Father knoweth best the way to lead His child to that fair land - a 'Summer Land' - where quiet waters flow; were longing souls are satisfied, and KNOW their God, and praise for all that He has planned." --Anonomous
(If God is long-suffering for us, ought we not be patient with Him? - see Lk 21:19)
