Bible verse
Psalm 46:10
“Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.”
What it means
A word for the anxious and the striving: stop, breathe, and remember who God is. Stillness is not passivity but trust, laying down the effort to control everything and resting in the One who reigns.
