THE WAY

DAY 5 OF 14

Be Still

There are times along the way when things get more than a little stressful, overwhelming, challenging, even terrifying. Sometimes this is a result of us getting in our own way, but other times it’s because we live in a fallen world and crazy stuff happens. 

These are the moments in which we want to control all the variables and outcomes, or see much further down the way than we’re currently able. But like the Israelites, when we’re in what seems like a hopeless situation—an impasse—we need to learn to be still and trust, or like the Psalmist says (Psalm 46:10), “Be still and know,” that God is with you, ahead of you and right behind you. He has your back, so you can rest. All we need to do is be still on the inside and we will be able to stand firm on the outside.

Is there a situation you’re facing at the moment that seems as though there’s no way through? Try talking to the Lord about it and allow him to still your heart.

About this Plan

THE WAY

The early disciples of Jesus were called followers of The Way before they were ever known as Christians. This tells us that Christianity is meant to be a journey, a daily walk, a way to walk rather than a religious institution or set of behaviours to try to be perfect. This study looks at Israel’s journey from slavery to freedom in parallel to our story and our journey with God.
