1. the echo|| no.1

    God created the world by speaking it into existence. The psalmists describe creation as an echo of the presence of God. As his creation God has left intimate words within us. What would it look like, from the daily drab, to actually listen and hear those words? Because a day filled with noise and voices can be a day of listening, if the noises become for us the echo of the presence of God. When we speak of ourselves and are filled with ourselves, we leave listening behind. When we repeat the intimate words of God that he has left within us, God’s voice remains intact.
