Ever heard that bump in the night?  You get up.  Check every door.  Check all the rooms.  Nothing.  Must be the imagination.  So, go back to bed.  Almost a sleep—–BANG!!!!!!  Up again.  Check everything.  Nothing.  Frustrating isn’t?

 

Last night was that for me.  Went to sleep. Prayer cloth in hand.  Asleep.  BANG!!! Up check every door, every window.  Checked the basement.  Everywhere.  Nothing.  Went back to sleep with prayer cloth in hand. Woke up.  Prayer cloth missing.  Checked everywhere and finally found it on the communion table.   Weird or not?

 

God works in strange ways.  We often forget that simple fact.  Really we ignore it.  Since we can not explain it, we ignore it.  Can I explain last night.  No, but He did.

 

If we would just sit down and talk to God about the “strange events” in our life,  He would explain them to us.  It is just that we don’t listen, we imply our own understanding, or we just do not make time.  Whatever the reason, we miss the opportunity to listen to the wisdom of our Lord and Savior.  Take time to stop.  Look.  Enjoy.  If is holding the hand of your spouse, watching your children, watching the sunrise, or just taking a breathe of air, stop and listen for the still small voice of wisdom.  Thought for the day.

 

PS  What Mark with a prayer cloth?  Strange I know.  Someone special gave it to me.  I followed her instructions.  Another thought for the day.
