As I sit and have my cup of coffee with Jesus, I was reflecting on the VOICES we hear. I remember growing up watching cartoons, and occasionally there would be a character with a little devil on one side and a little angel on the other, and the character would hear both voices. Today, we hear many voices. We hear voices when we watch the news, we hear voices through social media, and we hear voices in our heads, but the only voice we should strive to hear is GOD’S.
Each day, we need to be STILL and LISTEN to the voice of God. Scriptures tell us that He speaks to us in a whisper, in silence, in the heart, and it is important to take a moment to breathe deeply, clear the mind, and LISTEN for HIS voice. Only when we hear HIS voice do we experience a PEACE that is like no other.
Today, as I begin my day, I will take time to be still, to be quiet, and to listen to HIS voice, which speaks to me from the beginning, and continues to draw my soul to HIM! HE says in Psalms 46, “Be still and know that I am GOD!” Be aware of the many voices that will strive to get your attention, today, but LISTEN to HIS voice!
Have a blessed day!

Hello, I follow your daily inspirations from Raleigh NC. I have recently lost a very dear family friend who suddenly died instantly at home at the age of 31 leaving a young wife and son. Please offer me some of your profound wisdom to share with this family as to why this happens. I know there is no answer, but what can I tell them and not say all the typical responses people say during this time. I am originally from Bakersfield grown and raised and attended StFrancis/Garces
