i’m like a cow chewing cud

the other day Ann posted this: 

 “ In the whirl of change: The posture of interior stillness is a posture of strength.

Interior stillness takes great interior strength — but gives you great strength for your exterior world.  Your exterior strength is in your interior stillness.

Because when you are still in your soul, you are in a posture of surrender to receive the power of God in your life.  Interior stillness means you’ve stopped resisting transition, but are insisting on transformation.

When you still… God moves  painful transitions into personal transformation...”

 and farther in:

“I listened to a man last week talk about finding his way through a completely disorienting, upending life transition and he said the only way through was to stay in the eye of the hurricane.

It’s true, and you can feel it: The centre of the hurricane is still always still. 

Through every transition, if you stay centred on what is central, you can still stay steady and strong.

  There is a centre that is the unmoveable core of the cosmos:  “Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him; do not fret…” Ps. 37:7”
