Continuing our series, “Be still and know that I am God,” we have to admit that there are times when God really grabs our attention. We sit up straight, open our ears and put the world on hold to hear what God has to say. But sometimes we don’t like what we hear, and we look for a way out. The burning bush turned Moses aside like a tug on a ring in his nose, but after hearing what God had in mind, his response was, “Um, no.”

As followers of Jesus, we are called to tune out the cacophony and busyness around us and within us in order to be still in God’s presence and listen. This is especially true for Prince of Peace during this “interim” time. Who exactly are we? Who is God calling us to be, and what is God calling us to do? And how do we listen for and really hear God’s word of grace and forgiveness in order to live faithfully and with confidence instead of tentatively and with fear, as individuals and as a community of faith?
