God’s Megaphone

July 19, 2007

There are a lot of bad things in this world. Bad people. Crime. Violence. Natural disasters. Starvation. AIDS. Slavery.

Listen.

It was C.S. Lewis that said, “God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our conscience, but shouts in our pains: it is His megaphone to rouse a deaf world.”

Could it be that God is trying to get our attention, but we are too busy looking around at each other, or else shaking our fist at God himself, to hear what he has to say?
