It's easy to open up the newspaper each day and think that God is silent. Take a quick glance at the world and you immediately feel like something is wrong. Most people would wonder where is God in this world? Why isn't He doing more? Why can't any of us see Him?
I've come to the conclusion that if God is silent, it is because His followers are silent. How can we expect the world to recognize the presence of God when we ourselves live like He doesn't exist? It's in our actions. It's in our attitude. It's in our speech. God is manifested through His people and I can personally say I myself have been too silent.
So it's no wonder the world can't accept God. The only way God will become tangible to the world is if the body of Christ starts living the kingdom of God, starts living in love, patience, faith.
God has revealed Himself to those who were willing to listen. He has set the mission. It's up to us now to be His hands and feet.
Such a simple concept but I'll probably be spending the rest of my life figuring it out. This isn't about religion, politics, rules, or guidelines. This is about how I live. Do I love?
