Slowing

Feb 11, 2024 • Heath Watts

In this powerful message, we're reminded of the importance of slowing down in our fast-paced world. Jesus didn't just come to die for our sins, but to show us how to live. We often worship Him but neglect to study His habits and disciplines. The key scripture, Psalm 46:10, 'Be still and know that I am God,' isn't just a suggestion, but a command. By intentionally slowing down, we can experience deeper peace and focus in our lives. This practice allows us to hear God's voice more clearly and avoid burnout. We're challenged to consider practical ways to slow down, like choosing the slow line at the grocery store or driving the speed limit. These small acts can help us realign our hearts with God's presence and find the peace we're seeking in our hectic lives.
