I had the blessed opportunity
to
BABY ~Sit
our precious grandson.
Baby
Sitting~
Watching the baby's every move
because the baby dictates what I will do next
as I am tending to his needs.
It was all about him as
he was the main character in my story!
All his needs tended to
and
I found it a joy
to spend the time with him.
He is the one who really did most of the
sitting
as he was so peaceful
not afraid
not looking over his shoulder to make sure I was watching
just playing
with each toy
as it was his last meal (yup everything in his mouth)
And when he uttered a little cry
I swooped him up
knowing
that he was just communicating a
need
of
hunger or tiredness,
a need that was
immediately met
because I was
Baby
Sitting
the main character in my story
at that very moment.
As I was
Sitting
in the moment
total peace filled my soul
as I watched this beautiful child
who was in the moment
enjoying every moment
because he
could just
be still
because he
knows
he is beyond loved.
Be Still and know
because I was
in every moment
at peace
as my eyes were peeled on
the little boy
because I knew
that he was at peace.
Thinking about this
got me thinking about how
God Baby~Sits me
because I am the main character in my story.
The story that He has written just for me.
He watches me
He sees my needs
He knows my heart
so I get to
sit in peace
and
Be still and know
and you get to
sit in peace
and
Be still and know
because
HE (PUT your name)
knows when _______________ sits and when _______________ rises;
HE
perceives _________________ thoughts from afar.
HE discerns ________________ going out and ______________ lying down;
HE is familiar with all _____________'s ways.
HE
created ___________________'s inmost being;

knit _______________ together in my mother’s womb.
be still
because
He knows
So
I praise you because ______________ is fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful,
_________________ knows that full well.
Because
He
put you in His Story
as
the main character in your story
perfectly scripted
just for you~
all the days ordained for ________________ were written in your book
before one of them came to be. (Paraphrased from Psalm 139)
What will you do differently today knowing that God's eyes are peeled on you in every moment?
Can you Be Still because you Know that God is God
and that He is Baby Sitting you?
Be Still and Know
that
God is God
that
He is in control
that
He loves you beyond a shadow of a doubt
so that
His peace
floods your body
so
you become
like a little precious baby
who
sits
in the moment
who
sits
in peace
because you know
that you are
safe & secure
but most importantly
Perfectly Loved
by the
One
Who is
Baby
Sitting
You!
So
Put Me in His Story
And
Be still and know,

that I am God.

Because
He watches over me...
