Experiencing God

People, whether they be followers or non-followers of Christ, claim that they have never experienced Him in profound ways.  Jesus has spoken to my heart in so many beautiful ways.  People long for this, but Jesus is also experienced just by our existence.   

We experience God by breathing.  For every breath we take in, He is constantly breathing out for us.  His hand is over us allowing us to breath out.  That is experiencing God. 

We also experience God just by walking outside.  Look around you.  All of this belongs to God.  He created the splendor of the trees.  He created the majesty of the mountains.  He created the serenity of a sunset. 

Look in the mirror.  He created the beauty of YOU.  By looking in the mirror, you can experience Christ.

We wait for Him to shout out to us, but, sometimes, God is loudest when He is not saying anything at all.  The Bible says to, "Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth" (Psalm 46:10).  We merely have to breathe.  We merely have to walk outside and look around us.  We merely have to look in the mirror.  Be still.  He is God.  He is exalted simply because you exist.
