Hearing God’s voice is something that many are skeptical of today. People think you are crazy if you tell them you hear voices, but it happened to me.

There are two specific times that I remember hearing from God. Once, I was on my swing set thinking on a beautiful day. I looked up to Heaven and asked, “What’re you doing up there?”

And as clear as day, I heard His voice say, “Watching you.”

It came out of nowhere, but I heard it. I hadn’t even had time to think about what He would be doing up there. And if I had, I don’t think I would come to the conclusion that He is watching me.

It was an amazing moment.

The other time, I was praying at church. It was my junior year of high school in the fall. I was trying to decide what to do with college, where to go, what to major in.

I questioned, “God, what do you want me to do?”

And instead of words, I saw a vision in my head of a hand writing with a quill. It looked like this photo.

Now, you may say that was me projecting what I wanted to do, but that wasn’t what I was planning at the time. In fact, for a few months, I defied that voice and majored in business. During that semester, I never had peace. When I finally switched to the English major my second semester, I found peace.

It happens when we least expect it and when we ask for Him to speak. Sometimes, He doesn’t speak, and that is okay. It doesn’t mean He doesn’t hear you. It just means He is waiting to reveal His plan to you.

“God’s voice is glorious in the thunder.
           We can’t even imagine the greatness of his power” –Job 37:5
