Until then,
I just want to encourage you.

And it
doesn’t make sense right away. It might seem like it’s not working fast
enough or even at all. You might catch yourself wondering if you should keep
going with it. Is it worth it? Will you ever see fruit? Or you’re not really
sure why you are doing this thing in the first place, except for a gentle calling that
you can’t quite explain.

But if you
feel that pull in your heart to keep persevering at something {a task, a job, a
hobby, a relationship} even though it doesn’t really make sense to you or the
road ahead seems unclear, can I just encourage you to listen to that voice?

And behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind tore the mountains and broke 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 the sound of a low whisper…

Yes!! Beautiful post, we all need this pumped through us on the reg, thanks for sharing!
I think the Lord has been whispering to me a LOT lately but it takes trust on my part to listen. We went to worship service on Wednesday and through song and a speaker, I felt God speaking to ME, in my ears, encouraging me. I was blown away and still feeling the emotional high from it. Have a fabulous weekend in SD!
Thank you for this. Today God sent me you. I needed this more than you will ever know. We are strangers… but today you touched my heart.
Forever thankful,
Allison
you are beautiful from the inside out! thank you for sharing this. i can say i've heard a few whispers lately and i am grateful for the reminder to listen!
San Diego? Two best friends? Excuse me, where am I?!
My problem right now is that I hear the whisper but am to scared to actually listen – if that makes sense. Listening would require a leap of faith, relinquishing control, and doing something outside my comfort zone. I know I should have more faith. Trying. Thanks, again, for your wonderful posts.
What a beautiful post 🙂 have a beautiful time with your friends! Can't wait to hear all about it!
Beautiful post. This is SO true! Listen for the still small voice 🙂
It is so hard to be quiet and just listen to Him! Inspiring post! Just sent email about advertising 😉 New follower from Weigand hop! Love for you to follow back!
