Listening In The Silence

Psalm 19:1-4

1 The heavens proclaim the glory of God.

 The skies display his craftsmanship.

2 Day after day they continue to speak;

    night after night they make him known.

3 They speak without a sound or word;

    their voice is never heard.

4 Yet their message has gone throughout the earth,

    and their words to all the world.

Today and tonight go outside and stare up at the sky, the mountains, the clouds, the stars. Take a moment to take it all in. God is trumpeting, announcing, declaring His creative presence all around you.

Can you hear it? Can you see it?

Even in the silence, especially in the silence, God is trying to get your attention.

Know that you are never out of God's reach or never too far away to hear His voice. He made you to know Him, and He made the world to reveal Himself and His power to you. 

Look for Him today, and listen for Him in the silence.

-Beth Plymale
