A GENTLE WHISPER

“These are the laws you are to set before them.”
Exodus 21:1
 
This passage is teaching us that, as great as moments
of revelation and inspiration can be, they are not where
we will find God. It’s wonderful to be moved by a
beautiful sunset or to be awed by a powerful
thunderstorm. They may make us feel more connected
to God and inspire us to change. But that’s not where
we encounter God in the deepest way.
 
We truly encounter God where we are least expecting it
– in the store, at a business meeting, sitting around the
house with our family. It’s the quiet moments in life
where we choose to follow God’s Word or set His laws
aside; that’s where we truly encounter God.
As you go through the day, keep an ear out for that
“gentle whisper” guiding you and commanding you as
you go through life. When you hear God’s voice and
choose to obey His laws, you will have found Him, no
matter where you may be. Nothing is more sensational
than that!
 
With prayers for shalom, peace,
Rabbi Yechiel Eckstein
