a Whisper…feathers in the wind

“Everyday there are opportunities that come your way to love and serve others. Sometimes you see them, acknowledge them, and do something with them. Other times, they float right by you like feathers in the wind.

I desire for you to become so sensitive to the power of my Holy Spirit at work in you that you know my voice and hear me when I speak.  When you are alert to my Spirit you will not miss an opportunity when it comes. Set your desires upon me and let your spiritual eyes be open wide to what is happening around you.

If an opportunity comes, but the way ahead seems unclear, stop, pray, and wait for me. You do not have to allow the pressure of doing something in that moment to consume you to the point that you don’t know what comes next. When you’re at peace, I can provide clarity. When you are anxious, you cannot hear my voice.

If things are moving fast and perhaps more than you can handle, remember that I am not in the confusion around you. I am found in the peace that surrounds you. Go with me through each step of your journey today and moment by moment my Spirit, who moves ahead of you, will make the way clear. Opportunities will not pass you by as you move in sync with me.”

• But be sure to fear the Lord and serve him faithfully with all your heart; consider what great things he has done for you. 1 Samuel 12:24
• “As for me, this is my covenant with them,” says the Lord. “My Spirit, who is on you, will not depart from you, and my words that I have put in your mouth will always be on your lips, on the lips of your children and on the lips of their descendants—from this time on and forever,” says the Lord.” Isaiah 59:21
• Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God.” Mark 10:27
• Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. John 14:27

I am a devoted follower of Christ who believes that when we have ears to hear, God will speak to us. He not only uses His word through the Bible, but he uses the Holy Spirit to communicate with us in many different ways, but mostly in the ways He knows each individual heart will hear Him. This blog is simply about sharing the whispers that the Lord has spoken to my heart during quiet times with Him. I give Him all the credit for the words shared on this site. If there is any encouragement for you, as there has been for me, the blessing is from Him. I pray that all who find this blog will hear his voice in these Whispers.
