Part Four - Why Can’t I See Or Hear God? Series

Summary: Safer to have a God you can control!
And that’s the way it is for you and me – as with Moses, it’s ALWAYS a response of faith, not sight. But, when you follow by faith you’ll see the effect of what God has been doing; is it not the same as a burning bush?
These past two weeks have been devastatingly graphic. We have seen God in Haiti. The skeptics taunt, “Where is your God; why did he let this happen?”
But those who are peering through the burning bush fire have seen their faith come alive. They know God has heard, God feels their suffering, and He is answering!
• He’s moving the hearts of people like you and me to fill little bags with towels, soap and nail clippers.
• He’s mobilizing even atheists to get food to starving children.
• He’s working in the hearts of people to go be the hands of Christ in Haiti and everywhere there’s a need for an answer to the cry of human suffering.
People want to know why they can’t “see” God. I see him quite well!
