Sometimes God Whispers

‎"Sometimes God whispers and you feel it in your soul. He doesn't have to shake the earth or make a miracle to let you know He's here. Oh He's everywhere. Just Listen."


It's not always this thunderous shaking. Most of the time for me it is in that still small voice that I find the most peace and comfort in the arms of love. Sometimes driving down the road in the fall I see that the leaves are beginning to fall to the ground and I know that another season is being brought in. I stand amazed and realize that it's not contrary to the way my father is in control of my life. Through every season He knows which leaves to let fall, which flowers to let bloom, which crops must be harvested, and what days must be bitterly cold. I've entrusted my life into the hands of a greater power, because I know that I will never be strong enough on my own, and there are days when I stop to listen that I can see that wondrous power in everything around me. When I choose to listen I'm much better off. :) 


My relationship with Jesus shapes my view of the world. There is a great lesson in that, because when I allow the world to shape my view of Jesus instead, I become lost. Searching for something that will never be found. But when I stand still and allow his love to be my glasses, I can see things the way that he sees it. With life. With passion. With potential.


"I knew it then, I know it now. There is nothing too insignificant."
