God does not need to make noise

       I want to post a personal and simple text. It´s about something I always knew, but needed to be strengthened in my life today: God does not need to make noise to be on our side.     

      Sometimes we forget that God sees everything and he is in control of everything, so we fall into the mistake of feeling alone, helpless, weak, without pleasure in the things we like, waiting the time pass to see if something changes, and worse, all this fighting on our own. It does not work and we feel bad. But our life has value, even though many do not appreciate, even if we are forgotten or forsaken, finally, even though we are, apparently, alone. This value is expressed when our God, in His love, uses a graceful way of showing that He is watching everything and seeing everything and that He is near us. Sometimes He uses someone to speak the right words to us or He takes us to a Bible reading that speaks straight to our hearts, sometimes without understanding something happens, well, sometimes he uses up a simple post to prove that is on our side. And he need not make noise, because He wants to show to our hearts, not to our body, that He is close. Many are physically close, but close to our hearts are few and those are evidence of God's presence in our lives.                                     
         
      Do not want to simply see or hear God, because, perhaps, the noise is our way to realize something, but God is gracious, and His divine presence is quiet and much more real and lasting than the roar of the troubles of life. Stand, walk, love of God is very great, and do not think he will not find you just because you live there in a closed room. He sees everything and don´t need the noise to do it.
