Take every opportunity...to be still.
Be still before the Lord, and wait patiently for him; do not fret over those who prosper in their way, over those who carry out evil devices.
Psalms 37:7 (NRSV)
Be still, and know that I am God
Psalms 46:10 (NIV)
Sometimes being still is just what we need to do.
When it is in the context of being "before the Lord" and "waiting patiently for Him"...it is worth while...it is something.
Learn to be still!

Jean Sibelius understood this in "Finlandia". One of my most favorite classical piece converted to a hymn is based on this scripture. "Be still my soul" ... and now that I am the Lord. What a great feeling!
