Aaron was silenced.
My first thoughts go to why he remained silent. Was he angry and didn't want to dishonor God? Was he in shock? Was he processing what had just happened? Was this a reality check? Maybe you have studied this before and have more insight than me, if so please please share your thoughts.
How many times have I been silenced by God and his powers? Good or bad?
My world is very noisy. Lots of busy work. Lots of distractions. Lots of things that mask themselves as being from him but are not. There is very little quiet. Very little time to just be still.
As far as serving him, there are lots of opportunities for me to serve him each day outside of the church walls. Do I really take this seriously? I know that I pray each morning that he gives me clarity on opportunities to serve him but do I really truly reflect on this or am I just going through the motions. Do I really take these opportunities seriously?
Today as I sit here in silence, I am going to ask God to search my heart and convict me of things that are not pleasing unto him. If I am going to be serious about doing kingdom work I need to bring my best self to him. While I know that he is the only perfect one, I cannot use that as an excuse not to do my best at all times.
