I’ll be quite honest right now…my quiet time here has not been as great as I have wanted it to be. You’d think that being here, on the field, it would be easy peasy to connect with God and hear from Him daily...hourly. But distractions, noises and thoughts have bombarded my mind. Satan’s doing I’m sure. The past few days I have literally just sat in silence, because that was the only thing I could do to “connect” with Him. Physically still, but my thoughts all over. Then a couple of nights ago, He met me where I was. He showed up. Him and all His majesty. I was sitting on the roof at night, deep in thought and I happened to look up. In front of me was a volcano. Behind me there was a full moon (very first I’ve seen since I’ve been here). To my right, off in the distance, I saw a lightning storm dancing across the sky. To my left there were clouds majestically painted across the sky. And up above me were stars (also the very first that I’ve seen here). In a moment He showed me His glory. In a moment he quieted me spiritually and brought me to a place where I could find Him only. I was completely and absolutely inundated with love.
“When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers,
The moon and the stars, which you have ordained,
What is man that You are mindful of him…?” ~Psalm 8:3
