When your world is washed away
2020 was traumatic.
For some, it may seem a bit over the top to use the language of trauma, but when we look back at similar events of the past we’d recognise that they had a long-term effect on the people who went through them.
When we live under the kind of pressures we have this year our bodies respond with anxiety, sadness, and fatigue, along with other things and so we need to process what we have been through both for our physical, mental, and spiritual health.
And Psalm 46 is an incredible prayer for this season, that helps us describe what we’ve been through and bring it to Jesus, and then hear his voice for ourselves wherever we find ourselves today.
We are glad you've come to check this out, listen to the introduction to help understand why we do this and how you can best make use of your time praying through Psalm 46 and being led on a journey to help you process and turn your experience of 2020 into a prayer.
He says, “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.” The Lord Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. v10-11
1. What parts of your life do you need him to bring stillness to?
2. How do the broader meanings of the word ‘be still’ sit with you?
‘Be weak and know that I am God.’ || ‘'Be discouraged and know that I am God.’ || ‘Fail and know that I am God.’
3. Ask the Lord “where is it that he wants to use you in this next season?" (Knowing that often the best person to help another through a crisis is the one who has been through it themselves.)
4. What have you learned about who God is this year? Speak to him about the things you do not understand. Give thanks for the ways he has helped you know him better.
