| A Moment's Contemplation of Posture |

There are days - not long forgotten or hidden, for they are days like today - that I see you clearly. There are moments in these days that understanding comes as naturally as breathing. There are silent whispers that are more fierce than a yell from a mountain top.

They are moments within the ordinary that are so far removed from ordinary that they ripple throughout my life with a message so grand. They are as though heaven itself has broken through.

Posture is of the utmost importance for moments such as these. It is the posture of our heart that sets us apart as those ready to hear and obey. It is a physical and emotional posture of being still. It is a mental posture of knowing just who God is.

For Psalms 46:10-11 says, "Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth." The LORD Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress."
