Something God showed me

A friend sent this to me yesterday. I know it came from God because this is something I'd been dealing with the past few days. Just how does God speak to us? Here you go, be blessed my friend.
The man whispered, "God, speak to me"
and a meadowlark sang.
But, the man did not hear.
So the man yelled, "God, speak to me"
and the thunder rolled across the sky.
But, the man did not listen.
The man looked around and said,
"God let me see you."
And a star shined brightly.
But the man did not see
. And, the man shouted,
"God show me a miracle."
And, a life was born.
But, the man did not notice.
So, the man cried out in despair
, "Touch me God,
and let me know
you are here."
Whereupon, God reached down
and touched the man.
But, the man brushed
the butterfly away
and walked on
. I found this to be a great reminder
that God is always around us in the
little and simple things
that we take for granted..
. even in our electronic age...
so I would like to add one more:
The man cried,
"God, I need your help!"
And an e-mail arrived reaching out
with good news and encouragement.
But, the man deleted it and continued crying.
.. Don't miss out on a blessing
because it isn't packaged
the way that you expect.

Love Lisa

Thanks, it really meant a lot to me when I received it too. I think it really answers our questions that we have so often about where is God when we need Him and how does He speak to us eh?
