"Thus speaks the Lord God of Israel, saying: ‘Write in a book for yourself all the words that I have spoken to you." (Jeremiah 30:2) Write what you HEAR What are you hearing? "the sheep follow (Jesus), for they know his voice." (John 10:4) So often, as Christians We LIMIT our relationship With God... To what happens On a Sunday... Some may extend that Relationship to one or two Other meetings Throughout the week A few, rare radicals Actually walk with God DAILY As they KNOW that He Will never leave them Nor forsake them... BUT in most cases Where ever you find yourself We tend to think of God As ALWAYS and ONLY Speaking in terms of the Bible Or "HOLY" things... So I ask again... "What are you hearing" And... "Do you KNOW His voice"? Someone I know HEARD God Say something different... "COMB" That was it One word Now in a way The person started to Have a conversation With God... What does "Comb" mean? Is this a picture? Should I be analysing this? But as the person thought about it They actually started to LOOK For their comb... And realised that they didn't Have it with them... NOW the skeptics May start dismissing this... Questioning... "You can't honestly believe That this is God speaking"? "Don't be so silly!" "It's just your intuition" "You simply remembered Something you had forgotten" Part of this dilemma Comes from the difference Between Jewish and Christian Thinking... As Christians we tend To compartmentalise Our lives... Whereas Jews Consider life As a whole... God is NOT simply "A part" of our lives But is involved In every aspect Of our lives In this way He is as concerned About whether or not We have forgotten something As He is about our worship And our relationship With Him... I say all this As I am finding myself "Writing what I hear" On a more often basis Or indeed Daily If you look back Over my writings There were days and Sometimes weeks When I did not write... It wasn't that God Wasn't talking... Or even that I Wasn't listening... But I was waiting... For "that" piece Of "holy" writing... And God WANTS me "To write what I hear" And in so doing To encourage YOU To HEAR more clearly WHAT He is SAYING To YOU... The sad truth of the matter Is that God HAS been speaking To ME and to YOU But because it hasn't been "With Bells and Whistles" Or we haven't felt any "Goose Bumps" We have DISMISSED it As NOT being from God...
