To participate Terry Dashner William Barclay writes, "God's inspiration does not come to the man who sits with folded hands and lazy mind and only waits, but to the man who thinks and seeks and searches. True inspiration comes when the seeking mind of man joins with the revealing Spirit of God. The word of God is given, but it is given to the man who is seeking for it. 'Seek and you shall find'" (Matthew 7:7). Maybe this will help you. In Shaw's play, Saint Joan, Joan hears voices from God. The Dauphin is annoyed. "Oh, your voices, your voices," he said. "Why don't the voices come to me? I am king not you." "They do come to you," said Joan, "but you do not hear them. When the angelus rings you cross yourself and have done with it; but if you prayed from your heart, and listened to the thrilling of the bells in the air after they stop ringing, you would hear the voices as well as I do." May I ask you, do you give yourself the chance to hear God's voice? In the words of Andrew Murray, "Prayer is not monologue, but dialogue; God's voice in response to mine is its most essential part. Listening to God's voice is the secret of the ...
... assurance that He will listen to mine." Keep listening, God will speak to you. Keep the faith. Stay the course. Jesus is coming soon. Pastor T.
