Be Still My Heart

I have just received some bad news from a friend who witnessed an unpleasant sight regarding him.

How am I feeling?

Anger.

Betrayal.

Confusion.

Disappointment.

The thoughts - excuses, lies, unfaithfulness - of the things that he told me, when all along it was simply to conceal the presence of another person in his life.

Also because I should have known better as we started off the same - him telling me that he had issues with his girlfriend, which ultimately led to a closer relationship between us and ultimately fell for each other.

How did I not see it coming? 

There are so many things I want to say, so many things I want to do. I want to start a war, but I don't know...
There's a still but strong voice in my heart that tells me otherwise:

To sit still.

To wait upon the Lord.

To be at rest.

"What will those actions accomplish, Stella?"

Nothing, I guess, Lord...

"Cast it all on me..."

It hurts..

"I know, but trust Me"

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight (Proverbs 3)

Okay Jesus...
