  • A Whisper that Can Change the World

    We live in a loud culture.
    Religious rhetoric.
    Political propaganda.
    Commercial cacophony.
    People can grow deaf to a constant din of shouting.
    They shut it out as annoying background noise.
    That’s when a whisper can be heard above a roar.
    A whisper that is a revelation of a real secret.
    A whisper that belongs to a hidden mystery.
    A whisper that people want to hear.
    A whisper that can change the world.

    No doubt, there is a time and place for a shout.
    But there’s something to be said for a whisper.
    God’s voice in the garden whispering like the wind.
    God’s whisper to Elijah in a voice still and small.
    In a culture grown weary of angry rhetoric,
    I hear the Holy Spirit say…

    Truth can change a man in the wisdom of his days,
    It whispers soft, but constantly,
    You cannot live this way

    I know a secret.
    A beautiful secret.
    But some secrets are too holy and too beautiful for buttons and bumper stickers.
    Some truths are only desecrated when they are turned into slogans.
    But once you believe something beyond being a slogan—
    You believe it more, not less.
