Getting Through

Getting Through

Psalm 46

Gone are the days when a real person greets you on the other end of a phone call. It seems as though whenever we try to 'reach out and touch someone,' we greeted with a computerized voice.

I'm glad this isn't true of our Father in heaven. He is always there. NO voice-mail boxes, NO 'press 2 for more grace' and NO 'call waiting' interruptions. Thankfully, 'Call to Me, and I will answer you' (Jer. 33.3) has not been replaced by, 'All lines are now busy. Youer call is important to Me, Please stay on the line.'

Yes i wonder what kind of access He has to us?

Communication with od is a two way street He speaks to us through His Word when we come attentively before Him in prayer and through the clear voice of the indwelling Spirit. He paid a great price to keep the lines open so that we can experince the joy of being still long enough to know that He is God (PS. 46:10). As my grandmother's favorite hymn ' in the Garden' says:

And He walks with me, and He talks with me,
And He telles me I am His own
And the Joy we share as we tarry there,
None other has ever known

The Joy of hearing His voice is a call you don't want to miss!

Is God getting through to you?
