There are moments in my walk with God that I feel I am not “hearing” from Him. I struggle with bouts of doubt. I see Him moving all around me. I get confused about certain situations; not quite sure which direction to go. Or even what lesson is being presented for my learning. There are days when I expect God to do something BIG on my behalf, but by day’s end wind up feeling a little bit disappointed. It’s in these moments, when clarity is elusive, that doing “nothing” is in my best interest. In moments like this, the only thing I know to do is to be STILL, remain OBEDIENT to His Word and to TRUST in His Word even if it seems in vain. When you have no clue what He’s working on, remain confident in the fact that His Word guarantees that whatever it is is for your good. When you’re unsure of the lesson, rest assured that the works He has started in you will not be left undone. He is not a man that He should lie. So even though you don’t “hear” Him speaking directly into your situation, stand on His Word. Stand in His promises. Be at peace being still.
Stay Charmed,

Love your blog and the passionate way you share how God is teaching you. I can relate to feeling like you can’t “hear” God at times. Being still is a challenge for me.
