Wind

So my 5 yr old just walks and talks and is just about the Spirit!! She makes up her very own worship songs and loves to belt them out for all to hear, no one to hear, but especially God to hear.
I was sitting out in the driveway yesterday with my laptop trying to receive a better signal. We have been getting dropped A LOT lately. So, as I am sitting there trying to be about MY business, she is praising God. Sometimes I think I should be taking my ques from her example. She kept repeating this phrase in her song and it didn't really register at the time. Most 5 yr olds can be fairly repetitive at times.
Once I was done doing nothing on the computer I asked her to sing it for me again, and she obliged.
The phrase that stuck out to me was this...
"When the wind blows, Jesus is calling us."
I started to think about this......hmm...I pondered..makes sense!!
You cant SEE the wind but you know its there. Its in front of you, behind you, all around you. You can just FEEL it. It is about you.
So I found these 2 verses that I think are very fitting for this particular phrase...

Luke 7:27 "Look, I am sending my messenger ahead of you and he will prepare your way before you."
Jesus is talking about how God goes before us to prepare for us what is to come.

Exodus 23:20"See, I am sending an angel before you to protect you on your journey and lead you safely to the place I have prepared for you."

See don't you get it? God is so good that not only does he go before us but he sends us angels to be with us on our journey to keep us protected!!!
We serve a mighty and powerful God but also a caring, concerned, and compassionate Father!!
You God, are so worthy to be praised!!
