Psalm 46:10 : Anotjer take on the verse

 There is fear and there is Fear. The calmer we get, the clearer we think. Problem is not in the thinking part. We are mostly trained to analyse to process to apply logic and to think. We have the techniques and methods, some more some less. But we have the thinking faculty. We can advise other more than we can advise ourselves. A doctor in trouble is better off seeing another doctor than self medicate. So thinking and knowledge is not the issue. Issue is our mental faculty gets clouded gets jammed by the problem with the heart or spirit. If the problem affects us superficially we can deal with it superficially however when it affects us all the way to our soul and our survival is in question , we can’t then think clearly our defective mental faculty will betray us to make poor mental judgement and make wrong decision. It is good to have help and hotline to get us through but end of the day it’s us it’s you that have to make the final decision. It is important then to learn how to have a quiet mind. So we can make clear decisions.
