“Then David said, ‘The Lord who rescued me from the paw of the lion and the paw of the bear will rescue me from the hand of this Philistine.’” 1 Samuel 17:37
Many read verses and stories in the Bible like this and ask, "But where is God when I need him. I have never heard Him or seen him." This may be true, as we don't literally "hear" God or "see" God and if we did, we may think we are going crazy or no one would believe us. However, to say that we have never SEEN God or HEARD God is being blind and deaf to all of the people around us who have said, "Can I help you" or even better, those who help us without even asking our permission to help or those who give us advice or even better, when we unexpectedly hear something, even a voice in our head, that tells us what to do and it works.
Lord, thank You for "speaking" to me and being active in my life in ways that I don't always acknowledge or recognize to be You.
