"Amen, amen, I say to you, the hour is coming and is now here when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live." John 5:25
Day 28 of our Lenten journey: I was with someone last week that heard God's voice in their life. She said, God had been speaking to her for a long time and she just recently recognized that it was God speaking. He never leaves us and always speaks. When we are dead to God, we can't hear Him but when we are alive in Christ, we recognize His voice. He calls us into action, to listen intently and respond with love as He has done. The challenge is among all the noise in our lives can we hear God speaking. A trained ear can, this takes practice and faith. Remember, faith is an action word, put your faith into action and come alive in Christ. Quiet, dedicated prayer time is a great place to remove the noise.
Dear Father, my senses fail me but I perceive You are there. Watch over us as we walk steadily in Your direction trusting in that small still quiet voice that points us to truth. Thank You Father for the blessings in my life, the blessing of peace, the blessing of calm, the blessing of vision, especially in a world that can blind us to the truth. May we be super sensitive to Your voice, may we hear and respond to life and live. I ask this in Jesus name, Amen.
Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. 1 John 4:4b
