My "God Box"

God seems to be very silent these last few weeks.  I have listened carefully and have read scripture seeking.  I have asked trusted advisors for words of wisdom and God is being quiet.  When this happens, because this isn't the first time, I usually begin to look around.  I don't sit and wallow thinking God has forgotten me.  Rather, I look to see where He is moving.  Sometimes when I seek God, I am looking for Him in a particular place or thinking He will respond in a particular way.  I need to stop looking for God in the "God box" I've fashioned and see Him where He is for who He is.  It's not easy.  At times, I don't want to see what He is really doing.  I want Him to do what I want Him to do or be where I want Him to be.  I believe the silence this time is God seeking me to meet Him where He is, instead of Him meeting me.
