Be Still
1 Corinthians 10:13
No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.
Psalm 139: 1-10
O LORD, You have searched me and You know me.
You know when I sit and when I rise;
You know when I sit and when I rise;
You perceive my thoughts from afar.
You discern my going out and my lying down;
You discern my going out and my lying down;
You are familiar with all my ways.
Before a word is on my tongue You know it completely, O LORD.
You hem me in—behind and before;
Before a word is on my tongue You know it completely, O LORD.
You hem me in—behind and before;
You have laid Your hand upon me.
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
too lofty for me to attain.
Where can I go from your Spirit?
Where can I go from your Spirit?
Where can I flee from Your presence?
If I go up to the heavens, You are there;
If I go up to the heavens, You are there;
if I make my bed in the depths, You are there.
If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
if I settle on the far side of the sea,
even there Your hand will guide me,
even there Your hand will guide me,
Your right hand will hold me fast.
