Let Your Heart Take Flight

My fear of missing out on anything has been causing me to miss out on God – my biggest fan, my best friend, my Father - the one who is extremely interested in me, who will never just ignore me, ‘unfriend’ me, report me as spam or block me, and He can never lose my address. No matter how silly it feels, I’m convinced that many others are being robbed of precious time in this way, and maybe, just maybe, someone else will also hear God calling them to spend more time instead at His feet.

So, does God still speak to us today? Oh yes, for sure He does! If we take the time to check our God-mail we will find countless “e-mails” with step-by-step instructions that will hold us back from sin (and subsequently its consequences).

His “mails” are our chart and guide – a map on our journey through the earth. He sends out a daily newsletter with words of knowledge and good judgement for every situation, and when the enemy attacks you in your thoughts and emotions His words are the sword of the Spirit and the belt of Truth that keeps you from being caught with your pants around your ankles in the midst of the battle, and falling on your face.

His “tweets” are a light on our path to keep us from stumbling in the dark. His Facebook page overflows with wise counsel and words of encouragement and cheer. He always responds to your “comments” with promises that give us hope - our source of joy and singing. Whenever He sees from your “posts” that you’re in need of help, He sends you a message to your inbox that gives you strength in all of our troubles, and refresh and revive you. His Word stands firm! (Psalms 119, Ephesians 6:14, 17) He never cleans off His wall and He never deletes any mail.
