I needed to take a “pause” on the Interrupt journey this weekend. So today I pick back up… day 25.
I felt a huge shift in my heart this weekend. Perhaps this was why on Friday night as I tried to sit down and type, nothing would come. I felt that gentle nudge inside me say, “shhh…”
It’s true that sometimes there are places that God needs to take us through that are simply about us… and Him.
There is a time to be silent before God.
On this Interrupt journey, there hasn’t been a lot of silence. There’s been a lot of talking, processing and working through this.
This weekend I felt something come alive in me. But it didn’t come before a rocky patch and… silence.
Whether you are on this journey of Interrupt or not, I’ve been discovering: silence before God is priceless.
Today, I’ve been taking a minute here or there and quieting myself.
In those quiet moments, we listen and… we are able to hear.
We hear things that make our souls well, “You are loved.”
We hear things that move us to be a better follower’s of Jesus,
“Do the things that represent me well. Love. Give. Serve. Encourage.”
And we hear the gentle nudge of God,
“Go. This is the direction. Follow.”
A time for everything… even silence.
