If you haven’t watched the video yet, I suggest starting there.
This blog is for seasons when there’s no strong emotion pulling you, no clear question demanding an answer — just a quiet sense of being with Him.
And as always, let me say this gently at the start:
If you have questions, or if something here settles into you and you want to talk it through, please feel free to ask. I don’t have all the answers — but I care, and I’ll try to respond as soon as I can.
You don’t have to walk this alone.
There comes a point in the walk with Jesus
when you’re not trying to fix anything.
Not striving.
Not searching.
Not explaining.
Just… still.
And for people used to movement,
that kind of stillness can feel strange.
But it can also be holy.
🌱 Stillness Is Not Stagnation
We often mistake stillness for lack of progress.
Scripture gently corrects that assumption.
“Be still, and know that I am God.”
(Psalm 46:10)
Stillness is not empty.
It is attentive.
It’s the posture of someone who trusts
that God is at work
even when nothing obvious is happening.
📖 Jesus Was Comfortable With Quiet Presence
Jesus did not always speak.
He did not always act.
Sometimes He simply was —
present, attentive, grounded.
He withdrew to quiet places.
He rested.
He prayed without urgency.
“And he departed again into a mountain himself alone.”
(John 6:15)
Stillness was not a break from His mission.
It was part of it.
🌿 The Book of Mormon: Learning to Wait Upon the Lord
The Book of Mormon teaches the value of waiting.
“They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength.”
(Isaiah 40:31, echoed in spirit throughout the Book of Mormon)
Waiting is not passivity.
It is confidence that timing matters.
Sometimes the most faithful thing you can do
is remain present
without forcing movement.
🔥 The Nemenhah Records: The Sacred Pause
The Nemenhah teachings speak openly
about the importance of sacred pauses.
The elders teach that the Way includes moments
where nothing is required
except awareness and balance.
The Peacemaker is not always calling for action.
Sometimes He invites stillness
so the soul can settle into alignment.
The Haymehnay (Holy Spirit) often speaks most clearly
when striving quiets.
Stillness allows the deeper work to surface.
🌱 When You Don’t Feel Pulled Forward or Back
If you’re in a place where:
• you’re not searching for answers
• you’re not wrestling with doubt
• you’re not pushing for change
That doesn’t mean the walk has stalled.
It may mean you’ve learned
how to abide.
Jesus said it simply:
“Abide in me, and I in you.”
(John 15:4)
Abiding doesn’t rush.
It stays.
🕊️ Staying Close Without Needing Anything
One of the quiet gifts of walking with Jesus long enough
is discovering that you don’t always need something from Him.
You don’t always need direction.
Or reassurance.
Or correction.
Sometimes you just need presence.
And if questions do come —
or thoughts surface —
or something stirs unexpectedly —
please feel free to ask.
There’s no pressure to have it all figured out here.
🌿 A Gentle Closing Word
If you find yourself simply still right now,
honor that.
Let peace remain.
Let gratitude breathe.
Let Jesus be near
without agenda.
This walk does not always move forward in steps.
Sometimes it deepens by staying.
