Jagged rocks can be dangerous. But jagged rocks can be smoothed into delightful stones suitable for many uses when My whitewater of trials and suffering pound away at them. Humbly thank Me for the pain. Accept the pounding water on your soul as a good gift from Me. Be still and quiet before Me and My will. Trust and submit to Me and I will not only make you smooth but I will make you shine! James 1:2 Consider it a great joy, my brothers, whenever you experience various trials, 3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. 4 But endurance must do its complete work, so that you may be mature and complete, lacking nothing. 5 Now if any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives to all generously and without criticizing, and it will be given to him

Listen for My Voice. It is quiet and gentle. When you are listening for something quiet and gentle, you must be still, quiet, and gentle yourself or you won’t hear it. Trying to hear My Voice, while you are emotional or giving your mind free reign, is like trying to hear the birds sing while a lawn mower is near. Make your soul be still. Do not allow drama of the mind or emotions to take over. Watching dramas in movies or exercising the brain distracts one from earth-life. Emotional and mental drama distracts one from the Life in My Spirit as well. Calm yourself and then be in My Presence. Be still and know I Am God. 1 Kings 19:12 After the earthquake a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire; and after the fire a sound of a gentle blowing. 13When Elijah heard it, he wrapped his face in his mantle and went out and stood in the entrance of the cave. And behold, a voice came to him and said, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”… Genesis 3:8 When the cool evening breezes were blowing, the man and his wife heard the LORD God walking about in the garden. Jeremiah 29:12-13 In those days when you pray, I will listen. If you look for me wholeheartedly, you will find me. Psalm 46:10 Be still, and know that I am God.
