…Be Still

I like listening, reading and watching Joyce Meyer Ministries. Today, she had a video on Facebook on becoming more aware of God’s presence.   She said she’s been praying last year for the Gift of Awareness. She says

God, I don’t want to miss you doing a bunch of outstanding stuff in my life and me thinking it’s accidents or not really thinking about what’s going on.”

She explains: “We need to be aware of what God’s doing and not unaware of what God’s doing. I believe God is doing something for all of you all the time and maybe you haven’t learned how to pay attention to it.”

Back to her prayer she asks God:

“Why don’t you do the same kind of stuff you used to do.  He said Joyce, I do things all the time, you’ve just gotten used to it.”

And just as we can sense that a certain atmosphere doesn’t seem good or isn’t right for us, it’s just as easy to sense a certain atmosphere that seems not only wonderful but filled with the presence of God!  He’s right here and I never want to get used to it. I want to behold it always, for every ounce of wonder and awe that it is!

Thanks Be To God,
