Today’s Reading: Psalm 46:1–11

Be still, and know that I am God! -Psalm 46:10

The horrors of September 11, 2001, are forever etched in our collective consciousness. On what started as a normal September day, the nation was shocked as reports of hijacked jets being used as weapons of destruction spread around the world. We as a people were plunged into confusion, simultaneously brought to our senses and to our knees in prayer.

In our lives there are days and seasons when it feels like “earthquakes come and the mountains crumble into the sea” (Psalm 46:2); when “the oceans roar and foam” and “the mountains tremble as the waters surge” (v. 3). As much as we would like to, we cannot escape the mind-numbing, life-altering situations that we’d rather avoid.
