be still

i feel that recently the lord has told me to be still. i am definitely not the type to be still and to sit in silence. i like having background noises, whether its music or just people talking and laughing. my brain wants it. so when the lord said "be still" i was like "really?" i feel like my personality is to be on the go always and sometimes i need jesus time. it took sometime but i've been getting better at being still and listening to the lord. a lot has flourished from my time with the lord for example, starting a bible study for my close girlfriends. it is amazing to see young girls/women talk about their faith and how it effects them in their personal life. i love hearing about their prayer life, family and life struggles. but even then we must be careful not to be so busy that we won't have any jesus time. being still is a great exercise but it should never become just a daily routine that you have to do. let the lord speak to you and amazing things will happen.
