It's amazing the simple illustrations God uses to teach us valuable lessons, simple but valuable. We always expect God to talk to us in a loud voice or an extravagent miracle.Yet the closer I get to God and the deeper I dive in a relationship with Him I find that He has a thing for using profoundly simple illustrations that we tend to miss because we are expecting something huge. Yes He does encounter us in awsome and profound ways, but unlike the world our God enjoys speaking in whispers and simple illustrations, why? Because I believe He wants us to be attentive. He wants us to become still and focus in on Him. He is not a God of complications...and we're not hamsters running around in pink wheels with no direction...
That's the way God has been speaking to me the most lately, teaching me through very simple depictions. Somtimes it's things that I already know that He wants me to understand better, and sometimes its dimensions of His character that He chooses to reveal in a way which is easily understandable.Yet it is always lessons that comes at exactly the right time. God knows what we need and when we need it. I mean He's the one that created us so it's only logical that He knows us best than anyone else ever could. As long as He is the one calling the shots and making the desicions, even the insignificant ones, Im okay with that. It's not always easy, I do get impatient, but when asked for God will always provide His peace, and its the kind of peace the world doesnt know.It's that Kind of peace where even though everything is going bonkers all around you, up is down, down is up and left is right and nothing is going like you would want it to and decisions have to be made a.s.a.p, but you are still peaceful and just know that God will sort everything out even though you have no idea how He's gonna do it. God is ALWAYS in control altough everything seems out of control..........
