Roma Downey: ” When I was on “Touched by an Angel” we used to say that coincidence is God’s way of remaining anonymous.
“The voice I look for speaks through my heart. It’s less of a head voice – all my fears & doubts come through my head but it comes to my heart. A deeper knowing”.
John 10:27: my sheep hear my voice & I know them & they follow me
1 Kings 19:11-13: it may be a whisper, but you can hear it.
Heb 4:7: today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts
Habakkuk 2:1: I will watch & see what He will say to me
Be still & know that I am God…Ps 46:10: I have a hard time being still to listen to the voice of God because I have so much “racket” going on in my head. God does not scream to get our attention, he usually whispers! He speaks to us in many ways: the Bible, creation, people, impressions, etc. I have found the best time for me is early in the mornings when all is quite & still. I will get up & fix myself a cup of coffee, crawl back in bed, pray & start reading the Bible, but before I start my reading, I pray that God will still my thoughts, & open my heart to receive whatever He wants me to receive from His word. That works for me but each of us has our own way approaching God. I also ask for God’s wisdom & guidance throughout my day. It’s an effort for me sometimes to get up early but if I don’t, I find I miss that time spent in His presence.
