Sometimes It's Okay to Be Still

​I stared at an empty computer screen for a long time today, wracking my brain for something to write. Usually, a quote will inspire me or a verse will leap off the pages of my Bible and I'll know just what to write about. 
Not today. 

​But sitting here, staring at an empty page, I realized something.
It's okay to be speechless. 
It's okay to be afraid. 
It's okay to stumble.
Sometimes that's what it takes to bring me to my knees.
It's okay to be still.
​Realizing just how weak and small I am is terrifying -- until I am reminded just how strong God is. In my inadequacy, his glory shines the brightest. He uses the broken, the humble, and the speechless. 
Dear Speechless: Maybe He was only waiting for the quiet, so that He could say something for a change. 

"Be still, and know that I am God..." - Psalm 46:10
