Summary

When we hear the phrase, “be still” oftentimes, we can read that as “don’t take action” or “don’t move." But what does this phrase mean regarding Scripture? Today, Hannah Staubs from the Watermark Institute interviews Watermark member, Justin Powell. Justin shares that being still before the Lord is more of a heart issue than an action issue. Being still before the Lord is a daily choice to surrender to God.

Additional Scriptures in the Podcast:
Matthew 6:33, “Seek first the kingdom of God…”
1 Samuel 30, Story of David’s men, and the capturing of their families.
Mark 10:45, “For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve,
Luke 19:10, “For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”
Psalm 46:10, “Be still and know that I am God.”
Exodus 14:14-15, “The Lord will fight for you, and you have only to be silent. The Lord said to Moses, ‘Why do you cry to me? Tell the people of Israel to go forward.’”
Psalm 119:105, “The Lord is a lamp to our feet and a light to our path.
Luke 22, Jesus in the garden saying, “Not my will by yours be done…”

0:00.0	All right now, if we're honest, reading the Bible consistently can be a challenge, but it's never
0:05.4	too late to start, and we're in this together. This is the Join the Journey podcast.
0:12.7	Thanks for joining Hannah Stabs here with the Watermark Institute, and today we are looking at Psalm
0:18.1	Chapter 37, and I'm in the podcast studio with Faithful Watermark member, Justin Powell.
0:23.4	Hey, everyone.
0:24.2	Justin, glad you're here. Are you glad to be here?
0:27.9	So glad to be here. It's been fun to work on joining the journey for some years and finally get to be here in the studio.
0:34.3	Yes, Justin, if you don't know Justin, was on staff with the
0:37.7	watermark team and helped oversee so much more than just the join the journey website, but
0:42.1	faithfully served in that way, and we're genuinely, I'm saying even now, so grateful for that.
0:47.3	I remember first time I met Justin was in a meeting and you're telling us about the website

1:01.9	studying software and computer science things and got involved in startup world back in Austin.
1:08.5	And then we moved a company from Austin and Dallas in 2010, and really it was
1:13.3	after seeking my own glory fulfillment in success and business that God showed me emptiness in that,
1:21.5	and he really revealed my need for him. And after some years of longing for change, it was through the porch and young
1:29.0	adult ministry here at Watermark that he just showed me what surrender looked like. And so
1:34.7	then it led me to being on staff and, you know, feeling that pull towards ministry and getting
1:40.7	to serve here for some years. And then now I get to partner with our calling
1:48.0	to take some of the technology that they built in-house
1:51.3	and provide it for other people across the nation,
