Just be still
Updated: May 4
It’s 10pm and I am getting the BEST Goose cuddles. I am so comfortable and my head is buried in his warm, fluffy chest; but as soon as I stop rubbing him - he starts to wiggle and kick. So i huffed and said “Ugh - just be still, Goose.”
God spoke.
That’s exactly how He feels when we’re “begging for a sign.”
I say it so often when I don’t feel as close to Him. When I feel like our relationship is falling through the cracks.
“God please show up. I need to witness your glory today.”
Those big moments just give me a drive and a hunger for Him.
But it took that small moment snuggling my dog to realize that sometimes, maybe He just wants to admire us in silence.
To embrace us closely and enjoy the moment for Himself, and that - is beautiful.
Goose couldn’t feel me rubbing Him, so he wasn’t satisfied… But if He could’ve felt the admiration for that moment in my heart - He might’ve felt differently.
Even when we don’t feel God moving - His admiration and love is still there. Sometimes in what feels like our “most absent” moments - He’s the closest He could possibly be. Admiring us. Embracing us.
Thank God for His warm embrace and humbling spirit that is delivered when we least expect it.
