God Is Still Speaking 🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒 Bible Reading: Job 33–36, Ephesians 1 Bible Verse: “God does speak—now one way, now another—though no one perceives it.” – Job 33:14 💬 Quote: “Sometimes God speaks through His Word; sometimes through circumstances, correction, or quiet moments—but a listening heart pays attention.” ✨ Reflection: Elihu reminded Job that God can speak in ways people may overlook. Ephesians begins by reminding believers of the spiritual blessings we have in Christ. God is not distant from His children. He desires relationship, and His Word continually invites us to listen. The question is not whether God is speaking, but whether our hearts are willing to hear. 💡 Takeaway: Slow down enough to listen for God's direction. 🙏 Prayer: Lord, quiet the noise around me and within me.
