Call To Me
‘Call to Me and I will answer you, and I will tell
you great and mighty things, which you do not know.' (Jeremiah 33:3)
"The Lord is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth."
(Psalm 145:18)
We could hear it before we could see it. One lone goose, honking loudly on his
way in. If any other geese had been on the small lake this beautiful autumn
morning, they might have answered the call. The same would be true for ducks,
such as this green-headed mallard in the photo.
The goose paddled around, near the water’s muddy edge by the lily pads, all
alone. No answer. No geese were on this lake. Perhaps they had all flown south
for the winter. It was well into fall, and there’d been one chilly frost
already.
I thought, good thing we can call to God ANY time at all, and He is never gone.
Isn’t it amazing? This almighty God of the universe, who is unchanging,
sovereign, steadfast, and ever-faithful, is the same God who keeps a listening
ear out for those calling out - for companions, for help, for whatever. And, He
will answer. It’s a promise.
That is good news.
