Chiiiile… one thing about a storm, it will have your mind running faster than the wind outside. Thoughts racing, anxiety on high, and emotions swirling like a tornado you can’t seem to control. And that’s why today we need to talk about meditation — not the trendy kind people post about just for aesthetics, but real, intentional, God-centered meditation that brings calm to the chaos. Meditation is not about ignoring the storm; it’s about learning how to sit still in it so you don’t let it consume you.
The Bible tells us, “Be still, and know that I am God.” Notice it doesn’t say, “Be still when everything is good.” No, it says be still — period. Because storms will test your ability to pause. They’ll tempt you to panic, to move impulsively, to fix everything yourself. But meditation trains you to breathe, to center your thoughts on God’s truth, and to remind your soul that no storm lasts forever. That kind of stillness is where strength lives.
Now let’s get practical — meditation doesn’t have to be complicated. Sometimes it looks like sitting in silence with your eyes closed and repeating a scripture until your spirit believes it. Sometimes it’s deep breathing — inhaling peace, exhaling fear. Sometimes it’s journaling in the quiet morning hours, letting God’s voice rise above the noise in your head. Meditation is about creating space for peace in the middle of pressure. And sis, when you practice this, you realize the storm can be raging outside but your soul is steady inside.
Here’s the truth: storms may not stop when you want them to. But meditation teaches you how to stop letting the storm live in you. Because once you find peace in the middle, you stop giving the storm power it was never meant to have. You remind yourself that the winds may blow, but your roots are too deep to be moved.
