| Being thankful for quiet days.... |
Be thankful for quiet days, when nothing special seems to be happening. Instead of being bored by the lack of action, use times of routine to seek My Face. Although this is an invisible transaction, it speaks volumes in spiritual realms. Moreover, you are richly blessed when you walk trustingly with Me through the routines of your day."
Jesus Calling, April 13th, Colossians 3:23; John 15:5 & Psalm 105:4
This touched me in such a way - I'm always "concerned" about not knowing if I'm "doing what I should be doing." This reading told me that it's okay to not always be "in action", but to be thankful for quiet days. And also to use the "I'm bored" times to turn my attention fully to Jesus. This was right on time. Thank you, Sweet Heavenly Father.
Amen! Sometimes, GOD speaks when things are quiet, calm and we are operating routinely.
ReplyDelete1 Kings 19:11-12 And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the LORD was not in the earthquake: And after the earthquake a fire; but the LORD was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.
Thank you for such a reminder. I love your suggestion for yourself (and for me!) to use those "I'm bored" moments to turn to Jesus. He is always right on time, isn't He? : ) Caring through Christ, ~ linda
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful reminder of His power in our quietness! Sometimes, we get in our own way. But, when we redirect our thoughts to Him, instead of ourselves and circumstances, our cloudy lenses become more clear than the sunniest day! Blessings!
