I think God is trying to tell me something.
I was online researching the meaning of a word the other night, and I was directed to that word’s occurrence in Genesis 49:25. I didn’t get what I was looking for in my research attempt…feeling a little bit like I’d hit the wall. Where to go now? I decided to sleep on it.
The next morning, I got on the treadmill and began the daily bible reading that my pastor recommended for 2009. The pre-assigned reading for the day included Genesis 49. The very chapter I was looking at the night before. Hmmmm… what does this mean, Lord? I pushed my pregnant body to finish my 30 minutes of walking and stepped off with no clarity.
That night, I climbed into bed to do a little reading before my hubby and I were scheduled to watch the re-broadcast of the presidential inaugural speech. (We missed the live speech while at the disgnostic center for an ultrasound). I pulled out my daily devotional book, and the day’s verse was no doubt Genesis 49:24-25. Coincidence? A triple coincidence??? Not in God’s economy.
I read on through the devotional, hoping for a clue. I went back to the passage and read it top to bottom. God is trying to talk to me, but I am not sure what the message is. I am going to keep pressing in to Him until I get it. I need to get it. I need to hear from Him.
Anyone else out there longing to hear from Him?
