His Voice

"...evangelism without His Presence is nothing but clanging cymbals, like form without substance; so in the same way only intimacy with Him begets true evangelism, an overflow of his Presence in our lives unto the lives of others..."-Sam
Once again a reminder that I don't have to be perfect to stand before the King: that I don't have to 'feel Him' or 'hear Him' to know that He is there. Sometimes I get boggled down with the upstanding assumption that "We must always preach, We must always evangelize the Lord." instead of realizing that holding back and allowing him to help me hear his voice, is what is most needed in my life. I get so ashamed that I can't hear his speaking that I feel I must speak, when instead the only voice I need to hear is not my own, but his.
