In a world that feels increasingly turbulent—whether it’s the US elections, ongoing wars, social unrest, or other distressing events—it’s easy to feel like the ground is shifting beneath our feet. This uncertainty can weigh heavily on our hearts.
But Psalm 46 brings a powerful reminder: no matter how unstable things seem, God is our refuge and strength. He is a present help in times of trouble, and He has not lost control.
During this meditation, you’ll be invited to recognize what’s troubling you right now and bring it before God. We'll reflect on how God longs to help and sustain us, even in the midst of chaos. Then we will turn to God’s own words from Psalm 46:10—“Be still, and know that I am God”—allowing these words to bring comfort and remind us that God is good and sovereign.
We can rest in our Good Father’s care.
Take a moment to pause and remember who God is in the midst of your troubles. This meditation is here to help you know His peace and find rest in Him, even when the world feels out of control.

Psalm 46:1-3, 10-11, NLT
1 God is our refuge and strength,
always ready to help in times of trouble.
2 So we will not fear when earthquakes come
and the mountains crumble into the sea.
3 Let the oceans roar and foam.
Let the mountains tremble as the waters surge!
10 (God says,) “Be still, and know that I am God!
I will be honored by every nation.
I will be honored throughout the world.”
11 The Lord of Heaven’s Armies is here among us;
the God of Israel is our fortress.

(God) says, “Stop your striving and recognize that I am God!
I will be exalted over the nations! I will be exalted over the earth!”
