Can You Sit Tight?

“Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.” Psalm 46:10

Sit tight means to refrain from taking action or to be still. This takes self control which is a fruit of the Spirit. When you try to play Holy Spirit Junior you can make a real mess of things. 

What are you waiting on in your life? Waiting and ‘sitting tight’ takes discipline. When your human nature wants to take matters into its’ own hands trouble and chaos is knocking at the door. 

Our world does not like waiting. There is instant everything. No wonder you have a difficult time being still. I am dealing with something now and my fingers want to text or my mouth wants to open so I have to cry out to God. What do you need from God? 

PRAYER: Father in the big scheme of things are have things pretty good yet when I seemingly want more or try to orchestrate things it is not good. Help me remember to give all things to you and to smile when doing it. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
