The power and presence of God in the world is love.  Whenever I see love, I see God’s hand at work.  Many people accuse God of creating the world and then abandoning it.  They complain that He is hiding from our eyes.  If it’s true that God is hiding, He is hiding in plain sight.  The problem isn’t an invisible God.  It’s eyes that don’t see and ears that don’t hear.

I hear his voice in the sound of laughter and joy.  I see the beauty of God’s pallet painted in the sunset.  I see his infinite power in the billions of galaxies that He created and hurled into space.  I feel his care in the warmth of the sun that shines on my face.  I see the twinkle in his eyes in the stars at night.  I see reflections of his power in the lightning and hear echoes of his power in the thunder.  Every time a baby is born, I know that God hasn’t given up on the human race.  I hear God speak in the silence of the wilderness.  I hear God sing in the songs that He gave to each bird.  I feel God’s love in the love that I have for my own children.

All of these are ways that God speaks to me.  Everywhere and at all times, God is at work in my world.  Although He speaks quietly, I can hear his message of love when I become silent and listen.
