How To Be Still in The Midst Of Chaos

What does it mean to be still and when was the last time you were actually still?

I absolutely love meditating on God's word. For some, mediation has a negative connotation to it, so I wanted to share some insight on this.  Meditation in other religions means to let go and release all thoughts. This is a practice to quiet the mind and leave your mind in an empty thoughtless space. 

When the Bible mentions meditation, this actually means the complete opposite.  In actuality, God is calling us to be filled up with His presence, His peace, and His word.  Clear out your worldly thoughts and focus your mind on Him.

The word meditation and/or meditate is mentioned 23 times in the Bible. As busy as the world gets, lets slow down and mediate on His word. See below:

Genesis 24:63, "He went out to the field one evening to meditate, and as he looked up, he saw camels approaching."

Joshua 1: 8, "Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful."

Psalm 1:2, "but whose delight is in the law of the LORD, and who meditates on his law day and night."

Psalm 119:148, "My eyes stay open through the watches of the night, that I may meditate on your promises."
