Be Still, Rest For the Weary

“Be still and know (recognize, understand) that I am God.
I will be exalted among the nations! I will be exalted in the earth.”

Psalms 46:10



Cease striving and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”



~~~

For he sees that even wise men die;
The fool and the stupid alike perish
And leave their wealth to others.
Their inward thought is that their houses will continue foreveR,
And their dwelling places to all generations;
They have named their lands after their own names [ignoring God].
But man, with all his [self] honor and pomp, will not endUre;
He is like the beasts that perish.
This is the fate of those who are foolishly confident,
And of those after theM who approve [and are influenced by] their words.
Selah.

Like sheep they are appointed for Sheol (the nether world, the Place of the dead);
Death will be their shepherd;
And the upright shall rule over them in the morning,
And their form and beauty shall be for Sheol to consume,
So that they have no dwelling [on earth].

Psalms 49:10-14

“We lost everything,”


“I have witnessed many fires in my community and experienced the devastation … but none as catastrophic as the events that have taken place in our community these last five days and nights,” said actor Pierce Brosnan. “We beseech you to do everything in your power to save our community.”

“Everything is gone”


The blaze hit Paradise so quickly that most residents had to drop everything and run. The fire has destroyed 8,817 structures — including 7,600 homes and 260 commercial buildings. Officials said 5,615 personnel are fighting the fire; 52,000 people remain evacuated in and around Paradise; and 13,085 people remain sheltered.

More than 200 people have been reported missing in the fire that broke out Thursday morning, and no update on that number was given Tuesday.
