I was watching a science class with my boys. The topic was elements necessary for an air mass to form. One necessary characteristic is that they form in a place with stationary air. Then movement takes place. I may have learned that but have long since forgotten it.

Psalm 46.10 says, “Be still and know that I am God.” This act of being still reminds me of who is in control. My goal is to know Him and to know what He is doing. Then, hopefully I move throughout my day in the wake of His grace.

This is the most challenging aspect of prayer. It is the act of opening your mouth wide and receiving all the fullness of God (Psalm 81.10). Perhaps I’ve learned and forgotten this too many times
