To Be Still.

We have only been back at school for one week. 

It seems like we have been back for two months.

I have been so busy; It is Step Sing season.

Every second of every day has something in it.

Class from 8-5 on Mondays and Wednesdays. Practice from 6-9.

Internship from 9-3 on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Practice from 6-9.

Saturday and Sunday are full of practice.

Friday has been my day.

The only day that I have some time for me.

I reflected on where I am in life.

 That it is my senior year and that I am getting married in 4 months. (Which is insane- it has flown by!)

So much is happening all around me and I rarely have time to just sit and reflect. 

I just sat in silence, waiting on the Lord. Just trying to be in his presence. 

I try to fill every single day and every single second. 

Sometimes I waste my time with meaningless things, just to fill the time.

But, as I was still on Friday, my favorite Psalm came to mind.

Psalm 62:5-8

"For God alone, O my soul, waits in silence, for my hope is in Him. 

He only is my Rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall not be shaken. On God rests my salvation and my glory; my mighty Rock, my refuge is God. Trust in Him at all times, O people; pour out your hearts before Him; God is a refuge for us."

My prayer is that I continue this time of silence and waiting on the Lord. Talking to Him about what is going on in my life. Making sure that I am in His will. Giving up my control on my daily life. Giving Him my plans, my future, and my dreams.

It's always a good reminder to just sit with the Lord. 

To give up control.

And in this busy life, just to sit and be still.
