Are You There God
Most people who ask, "Are You There God," would be really surprised to learn just how close He really is!
Ninety-nine percent of the time God will speak to your mind through your spirit.
Many people are waiting for a burning bush or the appearance of an angel. However, they don't hear from God because they're waiting in the wrong way. God doesn't generally speak verbally. That's not intimate enough.
He speaks directly to our spirits. For example, you may say, "I think I should bake a cake and take it to Sister So-and-So." That's God. He thought about the cake, and He wanted you to manifest it.
God doesn't normally bake cakes. He uses people to bake them for Him. How do you know it is God who is speaking? It is when the idea keeps coming back to you. If you don't bake the cake, two hours later the thought will return.
You might dismiss it and then learn that Sister So-and-So needed a cake. Yet you didn't respond to God's prompting because you wanted something more "profound." You wanted a prophet to come to your house and say, "Thus saith the Lord: Bake a cake."
So the next time when you wonder, "Are You There God?" Stop and think. Maybe God is there and He's trying to tell you something but you're not listening.
