It's funny how our interpretation or recognition of certain scriptures can change throughout our lives. I can read the same verse hundreds of times without giving it a second thought, but at just the right moment in my life, God primes my mind to receive inspiration through formerly mundane means. As many times as I've read it before, one particular day, Psalms 46:10 jumped off the page at me and it became the mantra for my current stage in life. It reads in part, “Be still, and know that I am God.”
I'm fond of saying that the word of God blesses my life, but the truth is that the word of God profoundly changes my life regularly. Whether it's insight that comes from a simple verse, like Psalms 46:10, or the lessons I learn from emulating a great spiritual giant, the word feeds my soul and inspires me to become more than I currently am. A huge part of my spiritual growth comes from searching the scriptures and trying to apply their teachings in my daily life. While I often fail, back slide and fall short, I'm always supported by he who never errors and is always willing to guide me.
