Be still and know that I am God

A few weeks ago, I have been trying to get Brendy to go church. But I realized at that time, my duty is not to get her to go church but to get her to know Christ. I recalled many times i try to get her to go church, and each time, i failed. I get frustrated of why is that I am trying help her yet I was refused despite of she need help. It was then a voice spoke to me, "my child, you have done enough. Stop trying to get her to go church. I have a plan for her. She is in good hands. Don't worry." At first, i ignored this voice and still going to look for opportunity to get her to go church. Until not one or two weeks ago, we broke up a fight. But all is well now, because I chose to listen to the voice and hand her into His hands, and even myself into His hands. So I stopped trying to get her come church. Instead, I know in my heart surely God will bring her to Christ eventually.  Recently, she started to thank God for what happened in her life. And agree when i told her, "God has never given up on you". And she told me that her Granny told her how Jesus changed her life and make her happy today. Simple things but happy. And just now, she told me that she attend a talk from a professor on Monday,  and amazingly, the professor preached about Christ, of her past and how she end up being here in NTU, and everything she shared, her past and other things related to her. And I recall to this verse,

He says, “Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth.”

True enough, all we have to do is be still and know He is God, God who bring us together, God who bring people to non-Christians so as they will know Christ. And as they see how Christ changed their lives, the same way they will say, "Yes, there is a God out there will bring meaning to life, a God who will save me, a God who will change my life," and by that, they will make a choice, to follow Christ with their lives. And His Name will be exalted among the nations and in the earth.
