Happy Sunday! This year I am trying to practice some moments of stillness and quietness, and it is hard. We live with so much noise and distractions and big gestures that it is difficult to recognize the small, but important moments. God certainly can speak to us in big, dramatic ways. But, he often wants to get our attention in a small, quiet voice: a friendly smile, a generous act of a neighbor, a song, nature. I wonder how often I miss God because I am looking for the spectacular and I don't hear his gentle whisper. This week let's look for God in the ordinary, every day moments where I know he is waiting for us to simply pause and be still and hear his quiet, loving voice.
