The Still Small Voice


When our calling is blurred because of nuances such as hurts, pains, uncertainties, stilling our mind and focusing on Him who called us makes the difference. This can be a crossroad and a breaking point that will give us a breakthrough. Or this can be a purification of character that will make us a better person. But the question is, what and who are we listening? Are we “still” enough to listen to the “still small voice.”? 1 Kings 19:12a 

The problem of not knowing what to do and how to react is the urging desire to always be heard and validated. And then, there is tendency to want to know everything. There is nothing wrong with it, however when that becomes our obsession, then it's like being obsessed of self. Self-obsession clouds our hearts and minds, depriving us in grasping “The Voice” that gives life, peace and joy. 

It’s so easy to confuse the calling with our own desires for the calling. But it will only be clear if there is willingness to be humble and listen.
