Calm And Quiet

David Jeremiah

According to medical researchers at Duke University, there is a “vicious cycle” involving insomnia, anxiety, and depression. It’s sort of a “which came first: the chicken or the egg?” scenario.

Our task is to do what the psalmist David did: He didn’t worry about “great matters” or things “too profound” for him.

Calm And Quiet | Devotional By David Jeremiah

Surely I have calmed and quieted my soul, like a weaned child with his mother; like a weaned child is my soul within me.
Psalm 131:2

According to medical researchers at Duke University, there is a “vicious cycle” involving insomnia, anxiety, and depression. It’s sort of a “which came first: the chicken or the egg?” scenario.

Perhaps it’s the one that presents first; but once the cycle starts, it doesn’t matter.


Anxiety might cause insomnia, which might result in depression, which might lead to greater anxiety… and the cycle continues as the symptoms feed off one another.

There are plenty of good reasons to be anxious, depressed, and sleepless in today’s world. But Christians have promises from God that should alleviate all three symptoms—promises that God rules over all the earth and knows the beginning from the end of history.

Our task is to do what the psalmist David did: He didn’t worry about “great matters” or things “too profound” for him. Instead, he “calmed and quieted” his soul like a “weaned child” at rest in its mother’s lap—peaceful and quiet (Psalm 131:1-2).

God’s job is to guide the world. Your job is to “be anxious for nothing” (Philippians 4:6), to rest in the Father’s promises.
How soon shall the present night be forgotten in the brightness of endless day!

In Christmas, the worlds of secular and spiritual come together.

The Transcendental Importance of Christmas

Philip Yancey
Unlike most people, I do not feel much Dickensian nostalgia at Christmastime. The holiday fell just a few days after my father died early in my childhood, and all my memories of the season are darkened by the shadow of that sadness.
The gospel is good news, and God will give them the peace they need to submit to Him.

The Message of Christmas

Charles Stanley
One of the messages that we learn from the Christmas story is that of peace. While God might appear overwhelming at times, He always wants to give us the assurance that with Him, peace reigns, even in the announcement of His Son’s birth.
Why is this analogy important to us today? It is because we are the sheep and Jesus is the Shepherd.

The Voice of the Shepherd

Charles Stanley
Have you ever seen a child who cannot find his mother in a crowd? Although she may be out of sight, the little tyke may still hear her voice. It is almost as though his inner radar scans the sounds around him, looking for that one familiar tone.
Embrace your weakness and put your trust in the Holy Spirit. That’s where the real power resides.

Where the Real Power Resides

Charles R. Swindoll
The great apostle Paul was just like you and me. He had a love for God blended with feet of clay. Great passion . . . and great weakness. The longer I thought about this blend, the more evidence emerged from Scripture to support it.
Faith isn’t passive. It’s active. If you don’t believe me, read Hebrews 11.

DAILY DEVOTIONAL

Shut Up and Get Moving

Steven Furtick
When we’re looking for God to do something big. When we’re waiting to see God bring something new and greater into our lives. Be still. Let the Lord fight the battle for you. Let go and let God.
