Dear ,
Have you ever been reading the Psalms and come across the word, "Selah". Not knowing what in the world it means maybe you passed it up and kept reading, not realizing there's a lesson there for all of us.
'Selah' is commonly translated as a 'pause' or a 'suspension' from the music contained in the Psalms. Why would there be a pause? The pause was there for the Israelites to take a moment and reflect on what they were singing. They knew the words and they would sing them with loud praise, but it was still necessary to take a quiet moment and meditate on what they meant.
The lesson for us is simple - when singing our hymns, our praise songs, and especially when reading scripture - we need to frequently take moments to reflect and meditate. God doesn't require us to constantly be busy, busy, busy - always doing something. Frequent moments of quiet and calm where we focus on Him are always necessary.
I've heard that the acronym for BUSY is "Being Under Satan's Yoke". We can often pass up the best thing by being too busy with good things. It is important to slow down, reflect, take time to sit a spell and visit, especially with our Lord.
Psalms 46:10-11
"(10) Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. (11) The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah."
Blessings,

Too Busy Not To Pray |
For the past twenty years Too Busy Not to Pray has stood as a
 | | In Store or On Line |
classic on prayer, helping Christians all over the world slow down to draw near to God.
During those years, the world certainly hasn't slowed down. If anything, the pace, intensity and number of distractions have only increased. Brokenness and pain seem to have increased as well, with news of civil war, poverty, broken families and sex-trafficking touching us daily. The urgent need for prayer is clear, but busyness still keeps many of us from finding time to pray.
Two truths haven't changed in twenty years: God is the same powerful, just, holy God he's always been; and true prayer--prayer that changes us and allows us to participate in God's work in the world--can't happen on the fly. So Bill Hybels once again offers us his practical, time-tested ideas on slowing down to pray. Revised throughout and including a new introduction and new chapter on prayer and compassion for the world, this twentieth-anniversary edition of Too Busy Not to Pray calls both young and old to make prayer a priority, and broadens our vision for what our eternal, powerful God does when his people slow down to pray.

Some Parting Fun....

Nine year old Joey, was asked by his mother what he had learned in Sunday school.
"Well, Mom, our teacher told us how God sent Moses behind enemy lines on a rescue mission to lead the Israelites out of Egypt. When he got to the Red Sea, he had his engineers build a pontoon bridge and all the people walked across safely. Then he used his walkie-talkie to radio headquarters for reinforcements. They sent bombers to blow up the bridge and all the Israelites were saved."
"Now, Joey, is that really what your teacher taught you?" his mother asked.
"Well, no, Mom. But if I told it the way the teacher did, you'd never believe it!"
