Turtle or Hen?

"A turtle lays thousands of eggs without anyone knowing, but when the hen lays an egg, the whole country is informed." - Malayan proverb

This Malayan proverb could be interpreted in a number of different ways, but I want to use it to remind us that many people/things/ideas will shout loudly for our attention this year, but we need to listen to the voice of God. The enemy takes great delight in drawing attention to his plans and ideas, but God's spirit continues to work powerfully, sometimes without us knowing it. God doesn't have to shout to get our attention, as Jesus has already shown us what Love is truly about.

I encourage us all to listen for the voice of God in 2014. God wants to lead us into the path of Life.

John 10:4-5 
"When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice. But they will never follow a stranger; in fact, they will run away from him because they do not recognize a stranger’s voice.”
