want to hear it...

For the last few weeks I have been thinking a lot on the role of the Holy Spirit. For many who identify as Christian the Holy Spirit is an aspect of our faith that carries some of the most mystery to it. And for people outside of this faith, it probably seems to be one of the most absurd aspects of all this. I mean if you really break it down, the whole thing seems nuts. First we have a God who created everything who then decides that He needs to come and be among his creation to help bring them back to their Creator. And when he sets in motion the ability to do that, He takes on another form so that He can be inside of us and be with us all the time.  And the reality is its probably even more absurd then that, but our human minds can't even beyond to comprehend the vastness of all the God is.

So we have the opportunity to have God with us in all moments of all things and at all times. We have been given the Holy Spirit. We have a direct, intimate connection to God. He is speaking to us directly, we just need to hear it. There is so much noise. There are so many things that we allow to drown out that voice. Sometimes we don't recognize the voice. Sometimes it sounds like a foreign language so we filter it out. Spoken word artist Anis Mojgani has an amazing line in his poem Shake The Dust. I love the image it creates: "This is for the two year olds, who cannot be understood because they speak half English and half God."
