“God, Speak to Me.”

The man whispered, “God, speak to me.”
And a bird sang.
But, the man did not hear.

So the man yelled, “God, speak to me”
And the thunder rolled across the sky.
But, the man did not listen.

The man looked around and said,”God let me see you.”
And a star shined brightly.
But the man did not see.

And, the man shouted, “God show me a miracle.”
And, a life was born.
But, the man did not notice.

So, the man cried out in despair, “Touch me God, and let me know you are here.”
Whereupon, God reached down and touched the man.
But, the man brushed the butterfly away and walked on.

The man cried, “God, I need your help!”
And an e-mail arrived reaching out with good news and encouragement.
But, the man deleted it and continued crying…

My beautiful Tewahedo Orthodox sister, God is always around us in the little and simple things that we take for granted everyday. Don’t miss out on a blessing just because it isn’t packaged the way you expect. If you really want to hear God’s voice, read the Holy Bible. God is still speaking, but are you listening?

My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.
John 10:27 NKJV
