By what names do we know You to be, God? Sometimes I need You to be the strong, fierce Leader on whom Moses relied while shepherding the Israelites through a forty year wilderness experience. Other times, I hope that You are simply a Kind Listener, knowing I need to just talk, let my heart be open so it can be emptied of the hurt and sadness that are bursting its seams. You have sat next to me many times as my Great Companion, watching the waves roll onto the beach, contemplating the sun as it sets on the horizon. You have also shown Yourself as Creator, giving order to chaos, manifesting in abundance, in one grand sweep of Your spiritual paintbrush. You are a Grand Director, whispering cues to us, Your performance artists, gently guiding us through our dialogue. When we pay attention, we see just how easily and effortlessly Your play comes together, all the parts intermingling and reflecting Your skills as our Author.
Please encourage us to keep searching for more names we know You to be God. Amen.
