The "small voice" may really becoming too "small" when it is almost unacceptable to refer to the title "Christ" in the celebration of this holiday, and the name "Jesus" shouldn't be used in our public prayers, and the phrase "in God we trust" is no longer a national motto that everyone believes belongs on our national currency, which by the way we are being encouraged to spend in order to save our economy.

I publish a blog in which I try to get viewers to talk with me and others about what is good in their lives, what makes it good, and how long is it good for. But I have a very hard time getting viewers to discuss this matter, even when it is approached from some real challenging public and personal problems in our society. My current post is on the topic of "Merry Christmas", but so far no one has added a comment regarding this matter. Let's really talk about this. I invite you to join with me in a discussion of this topic. See my post here Merry Christmas;

Yes indeed,
Quality not quantity..

If one is running all about and jumping up and down,

how will they ever hear that still calm voice?

Lets ask Elijah.

1 Kings 19
1 And Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, and withal how he had slain all the prophets with the sword.
2 Then Jezebel sent a messenger unto Elijah, saying, So let the gods do to me, and more also, if I make not thy life as the life of one of them by to morrow about this time.
3 And when he saw that, he arose, and went for his life, and came to Beersheba, which belongeth to Judah, and left his servant there.
4 But he himself went a day's journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a juniper tree: and he requested for himself that he might die; and said, It is enough; now, O LORD, take away my life; for I am not better than my fathers.
5 And as he lay and slept under a juniper tree, behold, then an angel touched him, and said unto him, Arise and eat.
6 And he looked, and, behold, there was a cake baken on the coals, and a cruse of water at his head. And he did eat and drink, and laid him down again.
7 And the angel of the LORD came again the second time, and touched him, and said, Arise and eat; because the journey is too great for thee.
8 And he arose, and did eat and drink, and went in the strength of that meat forty days and forty nights unto Horeb the mount of God.
9 And he came thither unto a cave, and lodged there; and, behold, the word of the LORD came to him, and he said unto him, What doest thou here, Elijah?
10 And he said, I have been very jealous for the LORD God of hosts: for the children of Israel have forsaken thy covenant, thrown down thine altars, and slain thy prophets with the sword; and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away.
11 And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the LORD was not in the earthquake:

12 And after the earthquake a fire; but the LORD was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.

13 And it was so, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entering in of the cave. And, behold, there came a voice unto him, and said, What doest thou here, Elijah?

Our God is the greatest ever.
I had a great weekend with my daughter and God was included in topics.

I've ever only seen 6-8 people in a board of 9,000. [Confused]

Does this board need a revival?

COME ON ! PRAISE GOD IN THE HIGHEST !
It's that time of year when our savior was born.

GET UP AND RUN THE AISLES !

PRAISE ! PRAISE ! and praise some more.
