Does God yell?



Watching Joshua play flag football yesterday was an interesting exercise in discovering when the various coaches on the field would raise their voice.

When Joshua ran a route, caught the football from his quarterback buddy Teddy and subsequently ran for a touchdown his coach was yelling like crazy in congratulatory tones. Of course, Joshua was 40 yards away.

When Joshua was lined up in the wrong place on the offensive line the coach quickly ran over, placed his hands on Joshua's shoulders, leaned over and whispered in Joshua's ear where he needed to be.

There was no need for the coach to yell when he was so close to Joshua...

My iWitness...

 Do you ever picture God getting in your face and yelling at you?

I heard this thought provoking phrase yesterday on Sirius XM Radio Channel 63 - The Message...

"God doesn't need to yell because He's so close."

Let's chew on that for today...
I know I have been...

And that's my iWitness...
Laugh often and Fear not!
David!

"And behold, the Lord passed by, and a great and strong wind tore the mountains and broke in pieces the rocks before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind. And after the wind an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake. 12 And after the earthquake a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire the sound of a low whisper." (1 Kings 19. 11-12)
