Sometimes we’re looking for Him to scream
But, In the smallest ways He speaks.
If we are distracted or preoccupied
His voice will seem too weak.
In the seeking He can be found
But not always how we picture it.
We can’t box Him in,
He’s too big and in our “boxes”
He won’t fit.
Open your heart and look for Him everywhere and in everything.
In every way He’s speaking.
Draw unto Him and He’ll draw unto you.
Remain always seeking.
He never disappoints.
He loves you, you’re His child.
Lean into Him, seek Him out
And watch Him make you smile!
I love that our Lord knows what we need and when we need it! Recently I was browsing in a department store. I had dealt with a few stressful incidents and was taking a break to “breathe”. As I wondered down one of the aisles, a coffee mug caught my eye. It was unique to me. I had to buy it. On it was written the words “Perfectly Imperfect”. Immediately, I smiled the biggest smile! I thanked the Lord and shook my head in wonder.
You’re probably thinking it’s no big deal but, I wrote a poem entitled “Perfect Imperfect Me”. Please read it. (Please see blog post dated 10/10/2020..Hmmm…as I type those numbers out, the number “10” stands out! 10th month, date of the 10th and 2020. Wow)
As I saw the words on the mug, it took me back to the poem I wrote. As I read back over the words of that poem, I knew it was a reminder and encouragement from The Lord. They spoke to me again, reminded me. I thought about how I prayed and what was on my mind when I walked in the store and how everything shifted when I realized that “Big Old HIM STILL was thinking of Little Old Me”. I’m even smiling while remembering! He LOVES us! No matter what we go through, He’s always speaking and communicating. But, do we always have an ear to hear? Are we looking for Him to speak in a specific way that we often miss what He is REALLY saying to us? Are we so bogged down with issues that we are not tuned in to Him? Seeing this mug was NOT the specific answer I was looking for but, in seeing it and the message behind it let me know that in my waiting, He still cares and I’m still on His mind. It was personal and encouraged me and gave me what I needed. I felt recharged. HE MADE ME SMILE!
So, as I was encouraged, I want to encourage you. He sees. He knows. He cares. Whether He is communicating this message to you through this blog post or if He uses another way that is even MORE personal to you, know that He WANTS you to be encouraged. He wants to show you just how special you are to Him and how PERSONAL He wants to be to YOU. Invite Him in. Seek Him out and don’t box Him in! He can use anyone and anything to speak! Don’t miss Him! Love you!
