Line?
Do you ever find yourself in a situation, an encounter, that you know is ordained by God? There is some meaning or purpose for your being there—for your being you, there. Right then. You are completely in the moment—so self-aware that every nerve ending tingles—as if the Holy Spirit, the Cosmic Stage Manager, had just whispered in your ear, "You're on."
And you blow it.
You know there's something you should be saying. Some way to acknowledge God, to meet that person where they are, to validate the encounter in terms of His kingdom. But you just stand there stupidly with a "Thanks," or a "That's ok," or a "You, too," and then leave as soon as possible because you know it's too late to say anything worthwhile.
I trust the Holy Spirit to give me the words in these situations. I just wonder if I know how to listen.
