Daily Devotion - Wednesday, November 18

Responses from Our Souls

People of God from all the major religions believe that God is with them. How should we practice our faith these days? A response from the soul seems most appropriate.

● Soul language is felt and seldom exposed in rhetoric.
● Soul language is noteworthy, maybe not newsworthy.
● Soul language is simple stillness before God, it needs no words to communicate.
● Soul language is about transformation of our hearts, not the heart of another.
● Soul language is all about taking refuge, allowing the spirit of God to work.
● Soul language is taking time to lament the selfishness, greed and power around us.
● Soul language is taking time to be thankful to God who is still in love with the world.

Many things around us can seem chaotic today. Rather than listening to the chaos, let’s take the time to practice quietness in our souls today.
