"What does God's voice sound like?"

I walked into a restaurant recently, recognized someone and spoke to him for a moment. I moved on toward my table when someone called my name. I turned around and there was another friend. She said, “Even though my back was to you, I heard your voice and knew it was you.”

Some sounds are just more familiar than others, aren’t they? There are three trademarked sounds that I know you will recognize immediately: the NBC chimes, the MGM lion roar, and the Harley-Davidson engine sound. We hear and recognize these sounds quickly, like my friend did with my voice.

But there are some other sounds that we don’t recognize so quickly. What does God’s voice sound like anyway? God’s voice can sound like any voice, at any time, and anywhere. It sounds like goose bumps up and down your spine. Or a baby’s soft breathing. Or an “I love you.” God’s voice is more than a sound. It’s a feeling, too. So listen to life today for God’s voice with your ears, your eyes, and your heart as you make a life, not just a living.

The various sounds of God's voice is so right!!!! Thanks for reminding us---as I have heard the "I love you" outloud and the soft and wonderful "goose bumps" before giving a talk. It is wonderful to know our Lord and to hear him, and my prayer is everyone will listen AND HEAR from Him. God Bless you!!!!!

Now that you have reminder us about "God's Voice", could you tell us about "seeing" him? I
think it is in the breeze of the trees, the flowers that are so beautiful in the spring, and the soft fallen snow to mention just three that we see him. And what about the birth of a beautiful baby into our world. God is good all the time and so are your "lessons" for life. Thank you for all of them. God Bless.
