Sunroof
I don’t know about you, but God speaks to me a lot when I am driving. About a week ago, my wife and I bought a Honda Pilot. Normally we choose not to spend money on extra things, but for some reason we decided to get the package that includes a sunroof. (Which, by the way is something I always thought would be cool to have.)
Anyway, the other day I was driving Zach to daycare, and I opened up the sunroof. And within seconds, I felt God come rushing in along with the wind. As I looked up, I saw a beautiful sky, and then the words I heard from Him became clear.
Open your sunroof.
Not literally, I figured, but in a way that allows God’s love to pour through like the sunlight did that morning. A lot of my life I have my sunroof closed. Being a husband, being a parent, having plans, going here, going there. But not often enough do I find myself being open – or having my sunroof open.
God’s light shines every second of every day, and that morning I saw it. I truly feel that He was telling me to make it more of a priority to spend time with Him, to allow him more access to my life, so that He can work in me…
At least you have a sunroof lol. Sometimes I find that in order for me to hear from God I would have to open my roof with a butter knife. I desire so much to walk closely and abide in Gods presence daily. I fear though at this point in my life my desire for abiding in him and abiding in the world are in a race to the death with the world winning and God a lap down. My prayer is that I would be able to draft off the Holy Spirit and get myself turned around and into victory lane.
