Staying Connected
"Where did I lose you?" Oh, the frustration of another dropped mobile telephone call! In spite of the promises of my cell phone company, it does not take more than a turn in the road on Paoli Pike for me to lose the person on the other end of the phone. Oh my………again!!
Staying connected to God is no less a challenge for me and obviously more important. Many different factors seem to affect my ability to hear God's voice:
- Interference -- the static of my own selfish voice often drowns out the voice of God
- Solicitation calls -- the voices of the world offer much that distracts me from the voice of God
- Dead zones -- those times and places where the voice of God seems so distant
How can I stay connected to God? God cared so much about being connected to me that he provided perfect access – the work of Jesus and the presence of the Spirit. The apostle Paul tells me,
For through him [Jesus] we both have access to the Father by one Spirit. Ephesians 2:18 NIV
Will you join me this week in accessing the communication system that has consistent complete connectivity?
Sharing the journey with you,
