Be Still

I wrote earlier today about my falls last week....not sure why I needed to go into detail like that but for some reason it helped me ....I know I know I'm 5.

Anyway, something came back to me while I was washing dishes. Last week I had a devotional and a new chapter in a book I have been trying to read all year that were on the same subject on the same day. The subject was Be Still. I knew it was significant when I read them on the same day I just did not know why until I started washing dishes a few minutes ago. I have been praying for the Lord to help me with my patience problem. I know when you pray for something like that look out. I did ask for it not to be a severe lesson like I have lived through before but a simple straightforward help. Well I have been thinking back to those words since I read my devotion and when I get really upset or aggravated to just be still and then deal with the situation instead of going full force forward with my judgement, discipline, remark, or etc. Okay so maybe I need to slow down with the walking too. I fell both times because I was trying to carry to much, trying to do more than one thing at a time, and just plain not paying attention to everything around me. I will try to think more on this and write more later I do need to get back to the dishes:)
