Stop!
Stop thinking it's all up to you.
Stop acting like it all depends on you.
Stop running around trying to manage and control everything.
Stop carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders.
Stop eating the bread of anxious toil.
Just stop!
Be still and know that I am God.
Stop us, O God, when we go running off in
a-million-and-one directions instead of being still and quiet and allowing your
voice to speak to us and direct us. For
when we do not stop, look, and listen, there’s a good chance we are following
ourselves rather than following you.
Amen.
