As part of Christ Fellowship's series "Pursuit of Happiness" on the Beatitudes, Rick preached this week on seeing the face of God. Excellent message on the crux of the Beatitudes.
In that same vein, Mark Batterson (National Community Church, Washington DC) posts "Ten Ways I Hear God." Some of them fit me very well. Some of them I need to work on.
Ten Ways I Hear God:
#1 I hear God better after I've confessed my sin.
#2 I hear God better when I'm worshipping Him.
#3 I hear God better early in the morning.
#4 I hear God better after I've read my Bible.
#5 I hear God better when I'm not in a hurry.
#6 I hear God better when I'm out in nature.
#7 I hear God better when I'm on a rooftop.
#8 I hear God better when I'm fasting
#9 I hear God better when I'm out of my routine.
#10 I hear God better when I'm going after a dream
He also referenced a quote by Blaise Pascale:
"All of man's miseries derive from not being able to sit quietly in a room alone."
Man, I could really learn something from this.
