Finding Love in a bag of Lays...

Ken Helser says, "In everything God has a voice. You can hear Him in anything or miss Him in everything."

What is He saying in the middle of a traffic jam? In the cool breeze that moves through your car? In the movement of the trees? The song on the radio? And so on...

Ken Gire calls them "Windows of the Soul". Those moments when we hear the whispers of God in everyday life.

I think I have always known this. It seems as if my heart has always been sensitive. I remember listening to a Five Iron Frenzy song about dandelions. I was on my way to school. Things were tough. I was doing a lot of questioning and not really finding answers. It was one of those times where I wasn't sure that God still wanted me. I felt like I had royally missed the mark and was of no use. One part of the song says, "You see love where anyone else would see weeds". I knew by offering everything I had, as ugly as it was at the time, the Lord saw it as a beautiful offering. I found a parking spot at school, and when I got out there was a dandelion growing on the ground. At that moment, something that I see all of the time became incredibly meaningful. I knew God was speaking to me.

So, the bag of Lays....

I pulled this out a couple of days ago:



Ephesians 1:4 (Amp)
Even as [in His love] He chose us [actually picked us out for Himself as His own] in Christ before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy (consecrated, and set apart for Him) and blameless in His sight, even above reproach, for Him in love.
