The Inescapable Voice

May 13, 2009

The psalmist wrote,

I can never escape from your Spirit!
I can never get away from your presence!
If I go up to heaven, you are there;
if I go down to the grave, you are there.

(Psalm 139:7-8)

Have you ever noticed God speaking everywhere — you open the Scriptures, listen to a sermon, chat with a friend, read a blog, engage in conversation with a stranger in the grocery store, pick up a book and flip to a page that says…

“This is God — and yes, you got it right, that’s what I’m saying!… would you like to hear it again?…”

Sometimes, its pretty quiet, and you might wonder…Is He with me? Is He here? But in the silence, as you draw closer to listen, leaning in and settling into the peace that passes understanding (and words)…like the first glimmers of light over the horizon, dancing on clouds to signal the rising sun…God begins to speak…

And Oh does He speak!
