Just back from my monthly Businessman’s Life Group and I was really struck by a small phrase my friend Jarek used. He talked about the times when God says ‘hello’.
In fact if you think about it, those times are frequent. He is a God who loves us and wants to say ‘hello’, even if we choose to say ‘goodbye’.
He says ‘hello’ every time the sun rises. Every time you smell the fragrance of a rose. Each time your children or grandchildren give you a hug.
He says ‘hello’ through a friend’s prayer when you are struggling to stay sane. Through the gift at the door when there is nothing left in the kitchen. Through the unexpected addition to the bank balance, the bonus and the promotion.
He says ‘hello’ through an act of kindness, the squeeze of a friends hand, the arm around the shoulder.
And he says ‘hello’ through you. Every time you reach out, pray out, show you care, send a card or give a gift.
We have a God who loves to say hello. From the beauty of the sunrise to the grandeur of its setting, He is opening up a conversation. And He loves it when we reply.
