God is good. All the time.
I prayed last night for the Lord to speak to me loud and clear about my video mission work. I want him to help me discern between opportunities and obstacles. This morning, he spoke.
How does he do that? How do I know when he is speaking to me? Well, it unfolds.
The day dawns. It is quiet. Clear. A beautiful sunny day is ahead. It is peaceful and calm on the Lord's palette.
There are other channels and instruments God uses to speak to us: his people. My brothers and sisters.
In a span of about 10 minutes, I got an email from a professional photographer I just met and a phone message from a friend and spiritual advisor. Each expressed an eagerness to talk with me about my work and ways to go forward.
My spirit soars at these coincidences. Certainly these communiques have been in the works, even before my evening prayers, but they are enfolded in the plan that God has set in motion for me. My wonder and amazement never cease.
My faith is often weak. I sometimes doubt my purpose. Another source shared with me that the issue isn't if God will accomplish his will. The real issue is will you accept it, or reject it.
I pray for it daily but I just can't recognize it in the awesome silence of the day and the night.
The Lord stirs, he encourages me, reminds me he is near. This is the day he has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it.
