Sometimes God Speaks Directly to Me

January 5, 2016/CathyChung/

Topics to Dig Into

Who is He?

What is God like? Who is this man Jesus? How can we understand the Holy Spirit?

The Visible God

God is present and active in our lives, often working through people and ‘coincidences’. Thank and praise Him!

Making it Practical

Following Jesus in today’s world can be challenging. But living according to Jesus’ teaching is incredibly worthwhile. Call it life-changing.

He Knows You

God’s love is unconditional. He knows our hearts and continually invites us into relationship.

Ah-Ha!

Learning about the culture and language of Bible times can reveal new meaning in familiar scriptures. Let’s call them ah-ha moments.

Teach us to realize the brevity of life, so that we may grow in wisdom.

Psalm 90:12 (NLT)

Sometimes God speaks directly to me.

This Psalm was the Verse of the Day from Bible Gateway on the day of my step-mother’s funeral. Bible Gateway didn’t know what was happening in my life. They didn’t choose this verse for me.

God did. He knew.

God reminded me that life is not guaranteed. With this brief sentence, He both
comforted and inspired me.

Sometimes God uses the Bible to speak directly to my heart. Not every day, but often enough, His Word specifically relates to my life at that moment. For this
reason, this relevant text is called the Living Word. For this reason I keep digging into its pages.

We’re doing just that together here at Seeds of Scripture! A little bit every day! On some days the verse will be just what you need and I love when you share those moments!

The Bible is a living, relevant document. Listen to God‘s voice by reading His words.

  Thanks Cherrilynn. It was a beautiful funeral that I'll write about soon.
  
  I get such a charge when God speaks undeniably.

Spend a few minutes to plant a quick Seed. Or stay longer and plant a whole garden.

Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong.

Ephesians 3:17 (NLT)

I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who remain in me, and I in them, will produce much fruit. For apart from me you can do nothing.

Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.
