Rancho oasis.
More than just a ranch, or farm, or soccer feild. A home to seven nestled in the mountainous regions of Honduras. But it’s also a home to everyone who walks up that hill. The spirit filled atmosphere allows stress to melt away with every breath of the crisp mountain air. Problems dissolve as fog mistaken clouds pass over.
Last night the Lord prepared the atmosphere at our home in the Honduran mountains. infinite stars pierced the deep black sky. Crickets sung their song, and echoes of the city life lingered quietly in the background.
As the worship music began to play, my anxious heart was immediately lifted. Slowly my grip on my life loosed, and the spirit of my God lifted me to my feet. My soul danced and my feet swiftly brushed across the damp grass. A magical encounter. One with my creator. One with the one who knows my deepest being.
It was then I realized not to be discouraged any longer from not hearing an audible voice from the Lord. I realized the Lord speaks to all of us in whimsical, beautiful, ways designed uniquely for each us.
For me personality He makes His presence obvious to me by lifting my anxiety, shame, and burdens off in to the air. He makes me light as a feather and calls me to dance with him. Not your typical dance though. One where a feeling of ultimate understanding and unexplainable peace. The thoughts of my mind are ceased, and the presence of the Lord is undeniable.
This shows me how personal, fun, and Omni-powerful our God is.
I wrote this blog to encourage others to seeks and find God in situations that make you feel alive. I can almost always guarantee our father is dancing right next to you. I declare the lie that our Lord is not speaking to us to be demolished in the name of Jesus! And that we are more focused on experiencing His presence, instead of finding excuse why He is “silent”. Help us God be more focused on hearing your voice instead of the world!!!
