I woke up this morning to the sound of rain outside the open doors. The rain is welcome and brought about 10 degrees of coolness. I poured a cup of coffee and sat still listening to the rain for a bit. You have to know how hard that is for me. I usually wake up with my brain buzzing about what I need to get done that day, but today, I made time to be quiet. One of my pastors reminded me recently that while God laid out right from wrong for us, He is less concerned with what we do, and more concerned with who we are and who we are becoming. There are many ways to help with who we are becoming: reading and learning the Bible, preaching and teaching, community, serving, and hardest for me, quiet communion with God. This morning while I was quiet this refrain repeated in my head: "I want to know You, and be known by You." I couldn't help ending my quiet time with some noise, but this is the best kind of noise. Listen, focus on the words and focus on God. Click here.
