Day 14: He is

I am doing it again.

I am trying too hard.

I am looking for the

Burning Bush~

I am waiting for

God

to say my name loud and clear

and to tell me something

amazing that will blow my socks off

that will make this moment

the best moment ever

so that I can tell you about it

to show you that

God is amazing.

But if a

burning bush showed up in my living room

I am pretty sure that I would pass out.

Does God have to do something amazing in order

for me to know that He is amazing?

What more does God have to do

for me

to let me know that

He is here.

Have you ever felt like this?

Job did~

“I cry out to you, God, but you do not answer; I stand up, but you merely look at me. Job 30:20

David did~

"My God, I cry out by day, but you do not answer, by night, but I find no rest." Psalm 22:2

Jesus did~

“My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?” Matthew 27:46

Joni did

and I am sure that

You did.

Hmm~

We are in great company.

We are not alone.

Are you waiting for God

or is

God waiting for you?

Who would cry out to someone who isn't there?

Hmm~

So it is in the silence

in these moments

when I am looking for the

burning bush

I have to stop

and just look up

and know

that

God is

Looking right into my eyes

Looking right into your eyes

always~

“In the silence of the heart God speaks.

If you face God in prayer and silence, God will speak to you.

Then you will know that you are nothing. It is only when you realize your nothingness, your emptiness, that God can fill you with Himself.

Souls of prayer are souls of great silence.” (Mother Teresa)

Therefore

on this rainy Monday

I may not see the burning bush

&

I may not hear the loud voice of my God

But my heart is burning

because

that is where

He lives

No Matter What~
