Where Do You Find God?

“Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.” Matthew 5:8

I believe God reveals Himself in many ways- through Scripture, the wisdom of a friend, a soul-stirring hymn, an ant dragging ten times his weight, a squirrel romping in the autumn mist, a parent in a giggly embrace with their child, a sunset after a storm, or in a whispered comfort as you cry into your pillow. He promised if we seek, we will find.

God will make His presence known each and every day – You just need to open your faith eyes. That’s not always easy to do, especially  when the pressures of this world have clouded over your view of life.  I get that. I have been there—often.

Just try to focus on what He has blessed you with today, not on what has gone wrong. Wait like a child with her nose pressed to the window—watching. Be still and listen for Him moving in your day. Hear His footsteps treading quietly on the path of  your life.

“Show me your ways, O Lord, teach me your paths; guide me in your truth and teach me for you are God my Savior and my hope is in you all the day long.”
Psalm 25:4-5
