God Calling


"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness,
faithfulness, gentleness and self-control." Galatians 5:22-23



Divine inspiration is another way God speaks to us. The dictionary says it is “inspiration endowed by God upon spiritually gifted persons.” To some degree, we are all spiritually gifted because God made us in His image and likeness.

We have all experienced potential danger averted at the last moment by some unforeseen circumstance. The first thing we are likely to attribute it to is luck when in fact it was the hand of God working in our lives.

It is not enough to know the truth – we must feel it and live it. By actively looking and listening we will learn to see and hear the supernatural inspiration. Just as God gave every animal instincts necessary for its preservation, if we open our hearts and our minds, God will give us the inspiration we need to live as He intended.

"[P]otential danger averted at the last moment by some unforeseen circumstance..."

It's almost as if He was working through the natural order of things to insert His influence at the proper spot, as opposed to usurping nature.
