“But when he was alone with his own disciples, he explained everything.” Mark 4:34
If I complain that God is silent, I actually confess I refuse to listen. More than that, I expose a deep seated flaw that I remain immature and ignorant of my own choosing. God speaks constantly and not merely in a general but a particular sense. “Jesus does not take us alone and expound things to us all the time; He expounds things to us as we can understand them” (O. Chambers). Pause and pray with no agenda in mind other than to see yourself as God sees you. The response will be immediate and likely painful, but He will become more real to you than in any mountain top experience of elation.
