Created to Hear Godනියැදිය

When our world feels chaotic and we don’t have answers to our questions and we don’t know what to do, the Holy Spirit wants to grab us, look us in the eyes, and say, I am not hiding from you, sweetheart. I’m not hiding from you, My son. I got you. I’m going to speak the words you need to keep you alive in this season.

His is the voice above all other voices that has the power to settle us. It’s what saves us from having to be the biggest person in the room—the intellectual, the emotionally intelligent, the one who has the right answer to every question. Instead, we can be the one who relies on the God who knows us and created us and formed us, the God who can speak to the storm.

His is the voice that says, I know you, I see you, I love you, I’m with you. Our lives are extremely important to Him, and He has real opinions about every detail, even about those things we think aren’t valuable enough to bring to Him. Nothing is too much to ask of Me, He says. Let Me be God. I’m really, really good at it. When we recognize that voice, we experience its power. We can rest in its protection. Everything changes, even if it seems like nothing changes. The gift that we have in hearing God’s voice is one of the greatest gifts that we’ve been given and will get us through any moment of crisis.

Prayer:
Father, thank You for communicating with me, and please help Me hear Your voice. Amen.
