It’s in our quiet moments, that the Spirit of God comes and speaks to us. In those times, He gives us just what we need. No one knows better what we need; then He!

This morning, I was sitting at our table working on the weekly shout-out. I had prayed, asking the Lord to show me what His people needed to hear.

As I sat just waiting for the Spirit to direct my pen, I heard the most beautiful sound coming from outside. It was a Robin, and it was singing its song, well before the crack of dawn. It was so beautiful.

As I finished up the weekly inspiration, I took my cup of coffee and headed out to my perch on our landing. The Robin continued to serenade me with its song of peace. As I looked across the yard, I saw a lovely Bluebird come and light on a wire.

Then a hummingbird came right up to my face and hovered there for a moment. It’s visit spoke to my heart and said a lot more to me, than just good morning.

You see, some years back, a friend sent me a message. They were so excited when a hummingbird came to their feeder. I told them, that the Lord knew the desires of their heart and sent that hummingbird just to them, to say I love you. No sooner had I finished sending them this message, when a hummingbird appeared right before me. I got the message, loud and clear! The Lord was saying to me, “I love you.” It brought tears to my eyes.

The hummingbird visiting me this morning, was exactly what I needed. It was a reminder from the Lord, that He loves me, and that He is in control of my life. I don’t have to figure everything out. I can trust Him to help me, and He will always be there. Realizing this, caused my heart to fill with peace, joy, and thankfulness.

The Spirit of the Lord can come to us in so many ways. Each one of us is so unique; yet our Lord knows exactly what to do or say to touch our hearts. It is so important that we take the time to just be still, so we can appreciate His love and presence. In His presence, we will find the peace, strength, joy, wisdom, and His unfailing love, to travel the path before us.

I write here my personal experience to encourage you to find the time to spend time in God’s presence! You will be so glad that you did!
