Whispers

So we had an awesome Sunday morning at Church. Our youth band played amazingly. Steve is taking us through Nehemiah - "Descending to Greatness". One things he said, or at least that I heard from God through him that came as a challenge to me was in how we look to hear from God. Many hide behind I haven't felt God telling me to do this to do ... nothing. It would seem they don't change their underwear without a sign, but we all know that's not true, they just use it as a excuse when they don't feel like doing it. God speaks in so many ways, but often I have and heard others say God make it so clear to me, like yell it at me so I can't make a mistake. I was challenged that our intimate relationship with God, brings us to the point where we hear even the faintest whisper from God. We are in tune, listening, conversing, reading his Word so much that his whispers are all that we need.
I'm stubborn and so I'll still pray for God to make it so clear that I can't help but follow his will, but my goal and prayer is that I'd be so close to Him, I'd hear the whispers and follow.
