Gentle Pathways

Show Notes:

Gentle Pathways: The Voice in the Whisper

Passage:

1 Kings 19:12-13a "After the earthquake came a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper. When Elijah heard it, he pulled his cloak over his face and went out and stood at the mouth of the cave."

Reflection Theme:

This devotional explores how God often speaks to us not in dramatic displays but in gentle whispers that can only be heard when we position ourselves in quiet, attentive stillness.

Journaling Questions:

1. Where in your life are you looking for God in the "earthquake and fire" when He might be speaking in the gentle whisper?

2. What keeps you from positioning yourself in the quiet places where God's gentle voice can be heard?

3. When have you experienced God's voice as a "gentle whisper" rather than something dramatic? How did you recognize it as Him?

If today's devotional brought you peace, consider sharing this episode with a friend or family member who might also need a moment of quiet connection with God today.
