Last Friday night I experienced God in a way that I've never before experienced Him before. I felt a nudging in my heart that He was asking me to do something. Recently I have been so busy I haven't been hearing Him very much. I've really missed Him.
Well Friday night He showed up and asked me to do something. I chose to act on what I felt called to do and it is impossible to put into words what He did, the way I felt was so overwhelming. It brought me to tears, not just small tears but deep from your soul tears, when it happened and just thinking about it now makes me cry. I felt like I was doing something, in reality He was doing something for me. I saw Him in a way I have never seen Him before and it did something to me that I can't explain. I longed to stay in that moment, in His presence.
If you haven't heard Him speak to you lately, or maybe ever, I would challenge you to open up the Bible, the love letters He sent to us. Spend time in there daily and then pray and ask Him to show up in your life. I can't imagine anything worse than never feeling His presence in my life.
Psalm 27:4 (The Message)
I'm asking God for one thing,
only one thing:
To live with him in his house
my whole life long.
I'll contemplate his beauty;
I'll study at his feet.
