Living aware of Him! Oh how that is my desire every single day.
Because I don't want to miss Him!
Aware means this = conscious, cognizant, alert, fully attentive, wide awake, swift, agile, alert.
I cannot afford to live unaware of His presence!
Are we so familiar with His nature.. and His character.. that we recognize it when we see it?
Psalm 86:11-12 in the Passion Translation says, in part, "Teach me more about You, how You work and how You move."
I want to know How He moves and how He works in an given situation, don't you? That's being in relationship!
Know Him so intimately and being so familiar with His ways, that we simply cannot miss Him.
OH to be so connected to Jesus, we just KNOW it the moment He invades a space... the instant He walks into the room!
I don't want to miss it! I want to be like Samuel who recognized the voice of the Lord and responded with great faith, "Speak, Your servant is listening." (1 Sam 3:10)
The prophet Ezekiel knew the dangers of an unrecognizable voice. In Ez 2:5 tells us of the Israelite's, that they had a prophet among them and didn't even know it.
Oh how much better for us that we would KNOW and RECOGNIZE The Prophet among us than to realize later He had been here all the time and we missed Him!
Let's practice recognizing the Presence today.
He's here, friends!
In the sunrise!
In the car ride to work!
In the face of your child!
He's here!
Father God - awaken us to Your presence!
We don't want to miss You!
