HIDDEN IN MY HEART SCRIPTURE MUSIC COLLECTION

Amid life’s storms, it can be challenging to trust that God can calm the buffeting winds of circumstances. We might think about Jesus on a boat lurching on a turbulent sea and hear His words in Mark 4:39, “Peace! Be still!” And yet, we might doubt His ability to speak calm into our situations. However, Jesus’ words were more demanding than we might first realize. He was not making a mere request of the natural elements. The Hebrew word for “peace” means “an involuntary stillness and an ability to speak.” The words “be still” convey “being placed into check or muzzled.” Jesus displayed complete control of the circumstances. Psalm 89:9 points to this divine level of power, “You rule the raging of the sea; when its waves rise, You still them.” When Jesus spoke, “Peace! Be still!” He exhibited authority over nature and holds the same power in our lives.

Just as Jesus’ words subdued the waves and wind, God’s words can calm our inner storms. As we meditate on Scripture, we can experience freedom from fear and anxiety. Here are 10 Scriptures for peace in life’s storms.

Listen to Peace, Be Still from Hidden In My Heart, Volume III

Waves are crashing all around

Thunder roars as rain pours down

I am so afraid

There’s no shelter I can find

My heart pounds as waters rise

Hope is far away

Then I hear You say

Peace, be still

Peace, be still

There’s no need to worry
