Whisper

Okay. Today was beautiful. The smell of the fall/winter air is one of my favorite things in the world. It's the divine things like the beauty surrounding me that keeps me. I've wondered many times what I would be doing if I had not met Christ, and there is no answer that brings peace. Why would I keep living each day? What is there that is even worth striving towards that has any lasting reward? I put myself in that place often enough to know that I continue on with Him each day and I could not do anything without the Lord. I am capable of nothing on my own. I can keep myself busy, no problem, but in the times I truly listen are the times I truly hear.
'Allow Him to develop the plans of your heart and mind, and let Him accomplish them. Therefore if you desire to hear God's voice, never consider the final outcome or the possible results.' -Streams in the Desert.
So lately I've been walking out in darkness but it's then I am stilled to hear His voice. I rejoice in HIS power and HIS strength in my weakness.
I can't see, so I must hear.

"After the earthquake came a fire... And after the fire came a gentle whisper." 1Kings 19:12
