This world is too loud....for me anyway. So many voices, noises, so many things fighting for my attention..... I have had this painting sitting on my desk just waiting to be painted for sometime....
I want to hear His voice....
Then he was told, “Go, stand on the mountain at attention before God. God will pass by.”
A hurricane wind ripped through the mountains and shattered the rocks before God, but God wasn’t to be found in the wind; after the wind an earthquake, but God wasn’t in the earthquake; and after the earthquake fire, but God wasn’t in the fire; and after the fire a gentle and quiet whisper.
1 Kings 19:11-14 (MSG)
God isn't in the busy, the loud or the noise....He is the still small voice....the, "Gentle Whisper."
Your words are just beautiful, Kelly. I'm a Christian too (though I don't specifically blog about my faith). It's nice to read such posts of people in their daily walks with God. Much love x
