Be STILL and Know that I AM

That was God's Word to me yesterday as I was going about doing my w-o-r-k job with the Forest Service. I was on a seldom used Forest Road way up on the top of the mountain walking along when suddenly I heard God speak to me. HIS Words: "Be Still and Know that I AM" Not unusual since that happens to be a favorite passage of scripture for me but....why then....why at that time....that place? I don't have the answer but I know I heard from God. I asked almost immediately, "What part of me do you want to be still?" That was the wrong question to ask because HE immediately brought to my mind the picture of Abram when God spoke to him in Genesis 12. In verse 4 it says that Abram "departed". Again in Hebrews 11:8 it says that Abraham "obeyed". So, my question is, why did I not just obey instead of offering up a verbal comeback? The Answer: Because I am still in the process of change. Changing to become more Christlike. I am on the journey that Abraham set out for. Think about this and let me know your reaction.
God's PEACE on All who read this and a reminder to Be Still and Know that GOD is in Control.
