scripture

 

1 Kings 19:11-13

The LORD said, "Go out and stand on the mountain in the presence of the LORD, for the LORD is about to pass by." Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the LORD, but the LORD was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake. After the earthquake came a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper. When Elijah heard it, he pulled his cloak over his face and went out and stood at the mouth of the cave. Then a voice said to him, "What are you doing here, Elijah?"

 

En Espanol, 1 Reyes 19:11-13

 

thought

 

A great and powerful wind tore through the mountain, but the Lord was not in the wind.  There was an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake.  There was fire, but the Lord was not in the fire.  Then there came a gentle whisper, which was the Lord.

 

Have you ever wondered if perhaps you cannot hear God because you aren’t listening?  Or perhaps you are waiting for a booming voice from heaven and in so doing dismiss the gentle whisper of God?  Oh, how we need to learn to be still and listen.
