LOOKING FOR GOD

Today's reading: 1 Kings 19-22

"...but the Lord was not in the wind...but the Lord was not in the earthquake...and the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire there was the sound of a gentle whisper..." 1 Kings 19:11-13

Where is it you are looking to find God?

He won't always be found in the glorious, miraculous, highly advertised ways.

He won't be found in every church, simply because He isn't invited to every church.

He won't be found, in the way we'd like to see Him in every answer to every prayer.

But He will be found.

Maybe in the peace He leaves in your heart.

Maybe in the joy He provides despite the storm.

Maybe in the strength He gives to serve Him one more day.

Maybe in the gentle whisper of His voice in the ear of His child.

Maybe in the sunrise or the sunset.

Maybe in the pages of His Word.

He will be found when we search for Him--we just have to make sure we're not just looking for Him to appear in the way we would like.
