Lowered Wings


How can I hear the voice of the Lord? I think we find the first step in Ezekial 1:25. The Word states, "Then there came a voice from above the expanse over their heads as they stood with lowered wings." This morning as I read God's Word and reflected on my devotional "Streams in the Desert" I learned that these living creatures lowered their wings in order to eliminate the activity of their lives and to bring reverence to God. It is my prayer that you take time to lower your wings to God in order that you can produce his will. L.B. Cowman states, "Oh, how much energy we waste! How much time we lose by refusing to lower the wings of our spirit and become totally quiet before Him! Imagine the calm, the rest, and the peace that will come as we wait in His presence until we hear from Him!"

Hoping you take the time to hear from Him today.

Today Lisa and I are in Newport, Rhode Island. We walked the cliffs of Newport yesterday. Today we plan on touring the mansions that line the coast.

Abiding!

Stephen
