Description This is something I am always, everyday, learning to do. I think I've learned it in one crisis, then after a season of peace something else hits, and I have to learn it all over again.
It was a beautiful thing to learn that "be still" in Hebrew = "rapha" = to let go, surrender, relax.
So whenever the storms in life hit, I remind myself: "Relax. Surrender it all to Him. He has everything under control."

This. This song:Β "Still" by Hillsongs.
And this one: "Who am I?" by Casting Crowns

"Who am I, that the voice that calmed the sea
Would call out through the rain
and calm the storm in me?"

[Edit: and this song which I have just heard and touched me SO MUCH: Jesus it is You (by True Worshippers)

I asked God, "Uh...why are you taking me into troubled waters?" He answered, "Simple...because your enemies can't swim."

Fruits of the Spirit of Good vs Evil Spirit

Love ---- Hate
Joy ---- Deppression
Peace ---- War, Arguing, fighting
Patience --- irritability or restlessness
Kindness --- Selfish, greedy
Goodness --- Wickedness
Faithfulness --- Disloyalty, betrayal
Gentleness --- Aggresive
Self Control --- No Control, giving into temptation
Humility --- Pride, narcissism, egotism



Fruit of the Spirit: Galatians 5:22-2

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace,
forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
gentleness and self-control. Against
such things there is no law.


1 Corinthians 13:4-8

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy,
it does not boast, it is not proud.It does not
dishonor others,
it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered,
it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight
in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always
protects,
always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Love never fails. But where there are prophecies,
they will cease; where there are tongues, they will
be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass
away.

Your beautiful inspiring art is featured: Where I StandThis is where I stand, before you with all my scars, all my broken dreams, all my strivings, and I ask, am I ever to be complete, and what does that even mean to me, or you? Β Here I am, with my record of what I have done and said, the hasty words, unfinished thoughts, poorly worded half-assed answers to questions I misunderstood, and would you really like me if you knew everything I believe and I dared to say it all, would it not change as with life evolved, and could you forgive me for what I believed yesterday if I meant nothing against you? Β I only wish to bring hope and life and light and beauty to this world because maybe my need to see it is the same as yours unrecognized, so those that hate us for being positive, when all they see is darkness, for them I work, a fierce daily battle to blaze mighty tracks of light in the sky that may fade away but at least, be remembered. Here I am and you with me, doing the same, every day, for you are heroes, artists, champions, and IΒ Have a blessed day! -Debra
