September 6, 2012 | Posted by GodCenteredMom on giveaway, God-centered, relationship with God, replacing "me" with "He" / Tagged: Be Still, Flannel, Lisa Chan, True Beauty | 31 comments

Summer is over. The school year has begun. I spent 30 minutes the other day entering activities, snack schedules, meetings, programs into my Outlook calendar. Even with a concerted effort to be “less” busy this year…only one sport for the family this fall…no music lessons…only one Bible study for me...life is full. There is a constant pull to “do” and “be” more. Text messages I need ...

    I would love a copy of this for myself! Being a wife to someone in ministry (which I do love), mom, first grade teacher, and all other roles that I have….I have felt like I am finding it harder than ever to just “be still”.

    Thanks, I would like to be entered to win. My small group Bible Study group of six expat missionary women in Rwanda would love a new resource, and we’d love to share it with the other two Bible Study groups as well! Thanks! :)

    I would love to have this video. I am struggling daily to be still and sit at His feet.

    Love this! And yes, God answered my prayers several years ago to crave Him. How good He is!

    Being still is definitely a struggle as a busy mom!

    I would like to be entered to win the Be Still video. A husband, four school aged kids and a stressful (but rewarding) full time job keep me in a state of meeting myself coming and going. I would LOVE to hear what Lisa has to say about how to Be Still in this crazy world today.

    Would LOVE a copy!!!

    With 4 kids, it is hard to learn to be still. Would love to win this.

    This would be awesome!

    Would love this!

    A message that many of us need to be reminded of.

  15. reply → Kristin September 6, 2012 at 20:25

    Pick me :)

    I’ve been looking for something more to give to our mom Bible study at church that is basic, simple, too bad if you don’t want to hear it, truth. What could be better than a routine reminder from another mom to be still.

    This looks great! Always a constant struggle of for me to BE STILL. Thanks Heather!

    I really want to sit at Jesus’ feet, but always there are excuses in my heart.. maybe I need to watch this video? ;)

  19. reply → Roxie September 7, 2012 at 09:37

    Wow! What a wonderful resource for Mom’s. It’s a good reminder to spend time with God no matter how busy life gets.

  20. reply → Lauren Roe September 7, 2012 at 20:50

    This would be perfect for our mom’s bible study – pick me :)

  21. reply → Alia K. September 7, 2012 at 20:52

    I could really use this!

  22. reply → Ann September 8, 2012 at 14:23

    Would love to watch it.. Because being still is the most difficult task as a woman and especially with twin toddler boys

  23. reply → Sarah September 9, 2012 at 20:14

    I can relate…sometimes I feel like my schedule is so full that I only have a few minutes to be still each day. I crave much more than that!!

  24. reply → Tina September 10, 2012 at 06:01

    LOVE this! Thank you!

  25. reply → Elizabeth alam September 11, 2012 at 07:57

    Love :) hope it’s not too late to enter!

  26. reply → Lydia Parks September 11, 2012 at 13:34

    I’ve found that time alone with God is the only way to find joy and peace in this life! I will share this with my woman’s Bible study.

  27. reply → kelli wommack September 11, 2012 at 19:46

    Would love to win this! i am actually having a “sabbatical” day tomorrow to spend some time just being still and listening… Can’t wait!

  28. reply → Alicia Wallman September 12, 2012 at 09:48

    I work in Children’s Ministry and at our local hospital. I am a mom of 3 (2 teen-age girls and 1 very active young boy). Just like many…. I juggle LIFEf!! (sports, youth group, meetings, car-pooling, small group, dinner, work, etc.) My heart and soul cry out to hear God….TO BE STILL!! I would love to win this, not only for myself…..but also for all my female friends in community that are in the same place of craziness.

    I truly need stillness in my life. I seem to fill every void with something…especially things we’d all agree are “good.” I don’t even think I know how to be truly still. I look forward to viewing this video:)
