In the Stillness

“Be still, and know that I am God.”  This phrase you have heard before.  And have we not shared with you the phrase, “I am That”?  And now, hearing this, some of you will want to run out and do what you call “playing God.”  You will want to control all situations, for you reason, “I am That!”  In fact, being a part of That calls for just the opposite.  This is the part referred to as “being still.”  Be still and allow the greater aspect of the self—the part that has no need to control—to be in control.  Hmmm.  Yet another paradox.

Ego wants to control.  Spirit unfolds in the stillness as all parts of the All work together, not just one individual aspect.  Surrender to the knowledge that you are a part of That, and allow yourself to be guided … gently at times and unmistakably at others, but always from the stillness … that place of peace, not angst, that speaks to you softly and says, “All is well.”
