05/12/2011 06:00 PM — So, I was asked today by an atheist friend if I'm ready for May 21st. My first reaction was, "what's so special about May 21st?" So I Googled it. What I found really disturbed me.

In August of 2010, on a warm summer Saturday, I put on my shoes, a pair of shorts, and a sleeveless t-shirt.  The grass grows quickly in the summer in Ohio, and as I am our yard’s barber, I was preparing for my weekly ritual to style it to our liking once again.

As I was mowing over the little hill at our house in Pataskala and worshiping the Lord to the sound of worship music from my mobile phone, I heard the voice of the Lord clearly speak to me.  This is normal for me – to hear God.  What is strange and always stands out to me is when I hear Him without searching for Him to speak.  I love the Lord, and I love singing to Him.  But once in a while, when I come to praise God – not seeking anything from Him or desiring Him to give me something or to do something for me – but just to praise Him for who He is and all He’s already done – He speaks to me.  He wanted to tell me something, you see.  He wanted to warn me – to prepare me for battle, because He loves me that much.  He loves you that much too.  And He’ll speak to you the same way if only you’ll make time to listen.

Have you ever wondered why people often recite the 23^rd Psalm at funerals?  At least they do on TV shows and movies.  It’s almost to the point where people think of death and sadness when they hear it.  I don’t know if you’re like me, but I know for a while I refused to consider Psalm 23 after my grandma died, as thinking of it made me sad.  I wish I would have considered it more fully sooner, because I'm telling you, it's full of life and promise!

God has determined that everything He does in the earth, He will do through a seed.  The Scriptures say, “a seed shall serve Him” (Psalm 22:30) and, “While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease” (Genesis 8:22).  From the foundations of the earth, God has ordained this way that His will should be accomplished.  Then He made man in the image of Himself – to understand and uphold His principle of the seed.
