Stillness

We live in a dramatic world. No matter how old or mature we get, it feels like everyone is just an angsty teenager trying to lash out at the latest life injustice. The consistent image we see in the Bible is not bombastic clashes for retribution and victory, but God found in the stillness. Perhaps that is why so many struggle and strive for contentment at the hands of their own efforts, only destined to live a life full of discomfort. God isn't found in the cries of a warrior; He is found in the silence of a lamb.
