He Maketh Me Lie Down
Psalm 23:2 – “He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: He leadeth me beside the still waters.”
Sometimes I hear folks tell young people, “Make all the money you can, just as long as you make it honestly.” That’s not good advice.
If you make all the money you can, you are going to be making money when you should be doing something else. You are going to be making money when you ought to be alone with God. I’m not against making money. I’m simply saying that we need to stop and prioritize our lives.
Do you know what I think God does with some of us? He makes us to lie down. We won’t do it unless He makes us.
Why not stop right now and pray, “Lord Jesus, You don’t have to make me lie down. I’d rather slow down. I want to be still and know that You are GOD! Please show me how.”
