When the storms of life threaten to overcome us, we find ourselves crying out to the heavens, "Lord, don't You care?" As our soul is capsized with heavy silence and we continue to pray for a miracle, God's answer comes in the form of a question, "Where is your faith?" "Be Still" uncovers the profound life-applicable meaning of the miracle, "Jesus Calms the Storm." Through this powerful message, your spirit will be submerged with hope, peace, and comfort, as you find your way to the back of the boat...resting with Jesus. Just like the Disciples, many times you find yourself so overwhelmed by your storm that you look right past the only One who can save you and who is always beside you-Jesus. As you gain a deeper understanding of this great miracle, you will find that when God allows a storm in your life...it comes with great purpose; if you miss the purpose, you may miss God's will for your life. So, let go of your fear by grabbing hold of your faith...let the storms come, and let the waters rise-God is taking you deeper. "Be Still" reveals that there is victorious calming in all of your storms of life, when you learn how to have faith in the One that controls them. "'Be Still' is a healing balm to the soul. My best advice-get this book, use it, and buy another one for your best friend!"-Jim Thomson, M.A., LCPC, author and speaker."'Be Still' is not a book that you read once, put on your bookshelf, and then forget about. It's a book that doesn't promise quick fixes, or endless sunshine. Instead, it is a lifeline attached to God's Word, designed to help the reader find peace in the midst of each and every storm that comes their way."-Deborah Porter, writer, editor, and radio talk show host.
I'm just a sinner, saved by God's AMAZING grace, with one desire: for my life to be poured out as a servant to Christ, in order to bring glory to God.
God has given me the great joy of spreading His Word around the world through Scripturenow.com And even though I have a BA in Psychology and I'm trained in Biblical Counseling through the AACC . . . it is truly God who has qualified me, through my daily surrender, as I walk intimately with Him one day at a time.
In the most amazing journey of my life, God has seen fit to make me an International Bestselling Christian Living author. More miraculously, I've been ranked #6 in Bestselling authors for Amazon in the Religion and Spirituality category. Truly, God still does miracles. (It's ONLY by the grace of God that I am who I am. 1 Corinthians 15:10)

My greatest joy: Living out my Lord and Savior's command, "When you have repented and turned to Me again, strengthen your brothers/sisters" (Luke 22:32). It is my passion to encourage others in their faith and lead them into a deeper relationship with the One who paid it all.
My son was diagnosed with lymphoma back in October and I was really struggling through the waiting part of the diagnosis once they told us what he had we waited some more, now is December still waiting because of the holidays everything closes, finally December 30th was supposed to be starting chemotherapy then the insurance stopped it all they didn't have authorization, finally today January 7 he is getting his first treatment, this book helped me a lot be be still though the storm and the waiting of everything it's all in God's timing.
The message was good, and definitely something that is so important when thinking of faith, but it gets pretty repetitive. Many of the paragraphs, regardless of chapter seem to be stating the same thing with one sentence different. Getting through to the end was a challenge, but the message was something I needed to hear. If anything it definitely hammers home the concept of being still and looks at the same story so that you understand the point.
This book changed my presupposition regarding sufferings and trials in life. Instead of shaming myself for not having strong faith, I learned to hold onto God closely without shame. God allows us to go through difficult times and these are the times when we grow in faith significantly. Easy to read and follow.
Cherie Hill writes with a clear voice, and has a heart for people. I appreciate the generous use of Scripture. . . . .and the honesty with which she writes.
This book spoke to me in a time of a storm....it gave me more faith than I had and now I believe more than ever that God puts us through these storms for his purpose..
