God Intimacies

I had fallen behind.

I realized this morning that my next Bible reading in my yearlong journey was for June 19 and here it is June 21.

As I was chiding myself for missing two days, I opened my app to 1 Kings 17, where Elijah was being fed by the ravens.

I was speechless and had to pause, simply amazed.

Just last evening, someone relayed to me how God had so powerfully used that very story to impact that person's God-walk. To be fed by the ravens--God-provision--had become the very substance of faith and holding on.

Had I read it two days ago, would I have remembered?

Perhaps, but the connection would not have been nearly as sweet.

Do you look for these intimacies? Do you realize they are part of God's language system with us?

May there be a God-sweetening moment in your day.
