Never Miss a Call

A spotty or unreliable cell signal is problematic. For example, there have been times when Mister Bill was hunting, he was “off the grid.”  Sadly, there are times in our spiritual lives when we [too] miss God’s voice. Be assured: the missed word from Him has nothing to do with The One speaking!  The lack of signal most always can be traced to a struggling relationship with or broken fellowship with Christ.  Jesus said, “Abide in Me, and I in you.” (John 15:4). The Greek word “abide” refers to a continual tarrying and tarrying ... with purpose. If I'm expecting a call, my phone is constantly with me; my intention is not to miss its ring. This is how we are to abide in Christ – being diligent and attentive to His voice, faithfully keeping ourselves in spiritual range so when God speaks, we hear Him. The psalmist said, “But for me it is good to be near God.” (Psalm 73:28). There are days my phone is silent and that’s okay; it’s never a good thing, however, to miss God’s voice. Are you listening for Him? Remain in Him and ... never miss a call.
