“Be still, and know that I am God…” Isaiah 26:3 (NIV) “You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you.” Jesus, right now, I pause here. Everything feels like it has built up at once. Thoughts are moving quickly, pressure is rising, and even small things feel heavier than they should. God, I feel overwhelmed right now. I feel that. But I will not stay in this place. I come to You. I step out of the noise. I release what is pressing against my mind. I release the weight I was never meant to carry. I release it. And now, I receive. I receive Your peace. I receive the stillness that settles within me. I receive the calm that steadies my thoughts. I receive. You are not asking me to push harder. You are calling me to be still. So I slow down. I take this moment. I let my breathing settle. I allow my heart to return to quiet trust. You are God. Not the pressure. Not the noise. Not the urgency. You are. And because You are, I can rest. Even here, I am not overwhelmed. I am held. Jesús, en medio de todo, encuentro descanso en Tu presencia y paz en mi interior. Jesus Cristo, no meio de tudo, encontro descanso na Tua presença e paz dentro de mim. Jesus, sa Iyo ako nagpapahinga at ang puso ko ay kumakalma.
