Be still and know that I am God (Psalms 46:10).
If one takes the time to read this verse in context it will be found that God fights battles for us. It is not an insane strategy to stop and let God battle for us. It is especially true for Americans that we think we have to do something, and we do something and make things worse.
The great mathemetician-philosopher-theologian, Blase` Pascal is said to have said, All men's miseries derive from not being able to sit in a quiet room alone. If all one did is sit in a quiet room alone, something would be quit wrong. However, if one never sits in a quiet room alone, except for the presence of God, there is something quit wrong too, and the greatest resource of his life is simply disregarded.
Make some time each day to spend some quiet time alone with God. Who knows, you might receive an inspiration that will keep you from making things worse.
Our Father's Blessings,
Tom
