Still Small Voice


There was a time in my life when I was hiding. I was scared, unsure of what to do, or where to go. I felt like I was out of options. As my husband likes to say I buried my head in the sand. These verses make me think of that even though I was hiding from bad decisions and mistakes. Elijah was hiding because he had done what God asked him to do and people were angry at him. Two different reasons to hide, but God still showed up, even for me. 

I was sitting outside one day doing my Bible Study. I have no idea what that was or what scripture it involved. I do know I was sitting outside and it was a calm day, no wind or rain just a stillness. I started praying, the kind of prayer that ends with nothing but tears and crying. I can remember this so clearly even though it has been about 16 years. Suddenly a gentle breeze blew through my yard. It felt like a gentle caress on my cheek and I could hear God telling me deep within - "It's going to be ok. I will be with you as you walk through this." That day was a new beginning for me! 

Are you hiding from something? No matter what your reason for hiding, God will walk with you through it. Call out to Him! If you would like us to pray for you, fill out the form on the left. We would love to pray for you!

Isaiah 43:2




I love the visual this verse gives! There have been times in my life when I felt like I was drowning. This verse always brings me great comfort in those times. 

This is a promise that when we go through those hard times we will not face them alone. When we are drowning and feel like there is no way out - He is there. When we are being consumed by things around us and we can't break free - He is there. 

When you face difficulties remember this verse and hold on to the fact that God is with you! You are NOT alone!

So I’ve been experiencing something the past few years. It seems like the older I get, the more I catch myself in situations acting exactly ...
