Day 69 & 70:: Interacting with God (in the silence & awe)

Day 69:: Interacting with God in the Silence (I did it yesterday, typing today)
I have felt this way before...that in the middle of a situation, circumstance, or decision that I desperately need the Lord's direction, help, or WORDS for...I hear nothing, I feel nothing, and I think I have nothing. But that is where I go wrong. For I have everything. I have the assurance that my God is still God, that my God is good in the middle of that very situation or circumstance and whatever decision I make....that my God is sovereign in spite of my inefficiencies. What I learn most from Job here is to know that God is there and actually to BE WITH HIM in the silence. I might not know WHY He's not talking, but I can know He's there...being exactly who I need at that moment. After all, he is the one who knows what I need...I am not.

Day 70:: Interacting with God in Awe
What a beautiful version of the Creation Story! What an amazing and wonderful and powerful and might and HOLY God we serve. I am also completely humbled by this story. Where was I when God created the world? I was a mere tiny tiny part of that creation. Will I continue to let Him be the Creator and Maker of my world and my story...or do I crowd in with my own doubts, questions, and pride...asking God what HE is doing. He's the one that made my heart pump blood to every part of my body which makes my brain work that includes much more complexity than I can comprehend...you would think I could always trust Him with the little things.
