Revelations

This is a time that I suppose is aptly described as a time of struggle for me. And the obvious came upon me this morning, that I would feel better if I talked to God. No, not in the sense of just praying, because that, I do much of the time. Often it reads like a Dear Santa list at Christmas and I have felt that it should be much more than that.

During term time, it always helps to sart the day with paying some attention to God and what He has to say. Dan gets chapel in the morning. I don't. I created my own chapel when I would have breakfast and look at our Daily Bread to see what message God had for me that day. Often it was me taking and God feeding. I don't think God had a big problem with that, I may be wrong, but at least, I was listening.

It's not enough now. I want to be able to put my thoughts down about what God is saying to me. Digesting it, having a dialogue of sorts. Hence, the birth of this blog.

And as I was creating this blog, God spoke in the quietest of ways. My favourite verse in the Bible is in Philippians 4:13. I can do everything through Him who strengthens me. And as I was looking for that verse, I came across something else, earlier on in the chapter- Do not be anvious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thaksgiving, present your requests to God- Philippians 4:6, that speaks directly to my struggles at this point.

God doesn't have to send thunderous booming voices and burning bushes to get His point across. And the point is made all the same.
