Still

Psalm 46:10 talks about "being still" - as I searched this out a bit, I found the following:

... interesting to note...

The word, "still" means to cast down, to let fall, especially the hand - to sink down, to drop, to relax, to be disheartened, to refrain, to forsake, to let alone, to be quiet, etc.

The entire scriptures reads like this: "Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth."

"Let his own people be still; let them be calm and sedate, and tremble no more, but know, to their comfort, that the Lord is God, he is God alone, and will be exalted above the heathen; let him alone to maintain his honor, to fulfill his own counsels and to support his own interest in the world. Though we be depressed, yet let us not be dejected, for we are sure that God will be exalted, and that may satisfy us; he will work for his great name, and then no matter what becomes of our little names. When we pray, Father, glorify thy name, we ought to exercise faith upon the answer given to that prayer when Christ himself prayed it, I have both glorified it and I will glorify it yet again. Amen, Lord, so be it." (Matthew Henry Commentary)

...this is very encouraging to me today...
