55 STAND STILL IN JORDAN
The son felt that his days were becoming a breathless rush.
His Father searched him with questions: What of the minutes before the rush of the day is upon thee? Are thou filling them too full? Thy day may indeed be as Jordan that overfloweth all his banks all the time of harvest; but when thou comest to the brink of the water of Jordan dost thou stand still in Jordan?
Rise from thy knees and stand. Stand still and know that I am God. Stand still and know that I am Peace. Give Me time to bathe thee in peace. Then, as the brimming hours pass by thee, give Me time to renew thee in peace.
From "His thoughts said... His Father said..." by Amy Carmichael
