(6:13) Drawing Closer: Slow Down And Be Still

Send us Fan Mail

We share a concert memory that turns into a quiet invitation to slow down and be still before God. We read healing lyrics from the hymn “Slow Down” and reflect on how pausing can help us feel peace when life gets demanding or unpredictable. 
• remembering Sissel’s rendition of Chuck Girard’s hymn “Slow Down” at a Pioneer Day concert 
• connecting the hymn’s message to Elder Patrick Kieran’s Education Week devotional 
• reading and rereading lyrics that point toward stillness, patience, and closeness to God 
• naming the moments when life feels too fast, too demanding, or too unpredictable 
• finding peace in the temple or by pausing, reflecting, and inviting the Spirit in 
I urge you to watch his devotional.
