Most Christians don't hear God's voice because we've already decided we aren't going to do what He says

Arguing about God’s existence, I hold, is like arguing about air. You may affirm that air exists, and I that it does not. But as we debate the point, we are both breathing air all the time.

You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives.

Genesis 50:20 (via abibleverseforeachday)

If you want people to know about Jesus, teach them theology. If you want people to know Jesus, show them love.

You know what’s amazing? No matter how long you have gone without talking to God, without being in His presence, as soon as you turn back to Him, He is right there. With open arms, just waiting for you. And then He embraces you, and you can feel His overwhelming love. His peace and comfort, and everything is okay again.

He’s a really good God.
