The oldest brother of Jesus, James, wrote "Come near to God and he will come near to you." (James 4:8)

His glory is overwhelming but his voice can be small, gentle, quiet, and soft in order to draw us in close to hear his words intimately and clearly.

This passage from 1 Kings was the inspiration to the name and purpose of my blog: "sound of a soft breath"
