The Journey Continues: Sept. 1, 2017

Yesterday was a very busy day and if you logged into the blog you noted I didn’t post.  I actually needed to leave early and was going to post when I returned home.  Yet, it seemed the things I needed to do at the moment when I did return home were screaming louder in my mind that posting a blog.  Thus, I didn’t do it.

Two days ago I did post about hearing “God’s small voice.”  I write this and then I step back thinking that is a paradoxical statement.  God is everywhere, Almighty, Creator of all, and yet His voice is small?  Somehow I truly believe that God’s small voice is on purpose aligning with His commitment to man giving you and me choice.  If His voice were huge I would be intimated into listening to it.  God’s pattern of keeping His voice small requires me to CHOOSE to listen rather than having no choice BUT to listen.  Somehow I love God for being this way and creating life to always have choice in it.

In the last couple days I’ve needed to work on a problem needing my time and effort.  It has come together finally and the outcome is good.  However, “being still and listening for God’s voice” has been critical.  I wanted to truly represent Him in what I was doing.  It seems that was done.  I had said I wanted to learn to listen during the day to hear God’s voice.  Well, little did I know I’d be given such a direct opportunity to do just that in the very next day.  God is truly faithful to His Word.  I will be forever grateful for this truth too.  To God be ALL GLORY!  Great things He has done!
