But once I get up, I realize just how peaceful the early morning is to my spirit. I think most of us would say we hear the voice of the Lord better when it's quiet - when we have no other distractions.
Well - check this out - see just how loud the voice of the Lord can be...
Psalm 29:3-5, 7-9
The voice of the Lord is over the waters;
the God of glory thunders, the Lord, over many waters.
The voice of the Lord is powerful;
the voice of the Lord is full of majesty.
The voice of the Lord breaks the cedars;
the Lord breaks the cedars of Lebanon.
The voice of the Lord flashes forth flames of fire.
The voice of the Lord shakes the wilderness.
The voice of the Lord makes the deer give birth
and strips the forest bare, and in His temple all cry, "Glory!"
The end of the passage about the "voice of the Lord" ends like this...
Psalm 29:11
May the Lord give strength to His people!
May the Lord bless His people with peace!
It is my prayer that I will hear the voice of the Lord in the quiet and in the loud. I don't want to use "it's too noisy in my house" to not read my Bible. If the voice of the Lord can really do all that is described above - break trees, flash flames of fire, shake the wilderness - then certainly it can cut through cartoons and noisy children!
I want the voice of the Lord to be powerful in my own life
so I can experience His strength and His peace!
