An intensity such as never before was seen is taking possession of the world. In amusement, in moneymaking, in the contest for power, in the very struggle for existence, there is a terrible force that engrosses body and mind and soul. In the midst of this maddening rush, God is speaking. He bids us come apart and commune with Him. “Be still, and know that I am God.” Psalm 46:10. {FLB 225.2}

En kraft tager fat i verden som aldrig er set før. I fornøjelser, i pengegærrighed, i kamp om magt, i kampen for tilværelsen, er der en frygtelig kraft som lægger beslag på legeme, sind og sjæl. Midt i dette vanvittige ræs, taler Gud. Han byder os at drage ud og have fællesskab med ham. ”Stands, og forstå, at jeg er Gud.” Sal 46,11
