Being still means this to me:

Shut up, let go, and let God deal with all of it.
His timing and ours is not the same so get used to it.
Patience and kindness and full trust in God are learned during this dark time.
Always remember that God is working in him, and in me even though we do not always see results.

Being still also means that God is on our side because he hates adultery and divorce. If we are faithful and ask God, he will help us along and in the end might restore our marriage(s).


Though each person has different meanings, that is not what I mean by Be Still.
What you described is part of letting go, accepting and having faith. And specifically...letting go of the need to fix your marriage because God will do it...and Faith that God will fix your marriage, your MLCer... and Accepting the MLC process and that God and your MLCer will do it.

Now, notice how much of that was about you?

NONE...it was all about letting go of something that is external...involving another.

Be Still is personal and has NOTHING to do with anyone else. It is a personal search within onself...and yes, it is a part of Depression too. Stillness is often a feared place...it is solitude and silence where those represses and shameful fragments of Self are heard...and the depresses person doesn't want to hear and face those fragments.
