God and the angels only ever speak to me in whispers.
Utterances so low you are not sure if it is your imagination or the real thing.
God speaks to me in coincidences, synchronicities and subtle intuitions.
There is no grand voice.
No loud and clear message.
Just a subtle whisper, “Look over here. . .here I am”
Oops, you missed it, you were distracted.
There’s a good chance that God is speaking to you too.
Maybe it’s a glint of sunlight flickering through the leaves of a tree.
It could be a shooting star right at the moment you look at the sky on your evening walk.
It might be a moment of pure awareness when you are laughing joyfully with a friend.
You gotta stay open. . . Awake. . .Focused.
Only through the Mystical Exertion can the voice be heard.
God and the angels talk in secret codes to the ones who listen.
Beautiful and profoundly true.
I like to think of intuition as the voice of god.
We all have the ability to hear it; the hard part is learning how to pay attention.
Among the Religious Society of the Friends of Jesus, the people who are called Quakers, we have a practice we call waiting worship. We sit calm and still for many minutes and try to silence our own thoughts and listen for what the Holy Spirit is saying.
