Just as our surroundings shift when a storm is coming, so too do our ordinary circumstances when the Lord comes onto the scene. SUBSCRIBE to our sister podcasts:Your Daily Prayer: https://www.lifeaudio.com/your-daily-prayer/Your Daily Bible Verse: https://www.lifeaudio.com/your-daily-bible-verse/ Full Transcript Below: A Change in Atmosphere by Deidre Braley When I was just a bare-footed wild child growing up on the edge of a great Maine wood, I would relish the hot, midsummer nights when the sky would turn dark and turbulent as a blackened eye and thunder would begin its war drum in the distance. On these evenings, my parents would bring my sister and I out onto our covered porch and we'd sit there, watching and waiting with half-held breath until hot electricity finally struck its purple zing across the sky. I was no meteorologist, but even as a child I knew there was a powerful shift happening in the atmosphere. The whole world felt pregnant, magnetic, anticipatory. In the storm-filled air, my breath felt different. Familiar objects like our house, our chairs, the rusty blue swingset—they seemed novel in this light. Even my mother and father seemed changed. I felt as though anything could and would happen, here in this familiar-but-foreign environment. When I hear people talk about God as if he's boring—as though he is just a set of hymns stuck in the back of a stubborn old church pew—I want to grab their hands, pull them outside, and tilt their chins to the electric excitement all around them, just like my parents did for me when a storm blew in. I want to say, “Look! Listen! Feel! Can you sense it—this palpable change in the air when the Holy Spirit comes into our midst?” Zephaniah 3:17 says, “The Lord your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing.” Just as our surroundings shift when a storm is coming, so too do our ordinary circumstances when the Lord comes onto the scene. Our problems look different when examined under his light. Our hanging heads can't help but lift toward the timbre of his voice. Our raging, fearful hearts settle in the presence of his quietude. This is the wonder of God: that wherever he is, anything and everything can happen. Even our most commonplace lives can become electric with possibility when they're brought into the midst of our great Creator. And even our most troubling problems can take on new form when we let God remold them in his hands. That is why it is so important to be intentional about entering into God's presence each day. If we spend all of our time looking at our lives from a worldly perspective, we'll quickly become disoriented, disengaged, or just completely discouraged. But when we spend time with the Lord, he doesn't make us stand at the threshold of the throne room—he hurries us in and shows us the world from his perspective. Even if nothing on the outside seems changed after these encounters, the air inside our souls will have undergone a tangible, atmospheric shift—allowing us to experience the same old world in a whole new way. Intersecting Faith & Life: Does it feel difficult to feel God's presence in your life right now—and to believe he hasthe power to change the atmosphere of any of your current circumstances? Read throughJob 38-39, and mark which examples of God's might and omniscience are most strikingto you. When you begin to doubt if he can make a difference in your life, practice saying, “If God can [insert one of the examples you marked], then he can [make a specific change in your life]. It might sound something like this: “If God can ‘loosen Orion's belt' (Job 8:31), then he can also provide the money I'll need to service my car this week.” Being in nature is an incredible way to remember God's power and awe-inspiringattributes. Romans 1:20 says, “For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse.” Take a walk on the beach, lay on your back beneath the stars, or—better yet—pull up a chair and watch a storm. Bring your awareness to God, and praise him. Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

1. Life is not About Your Dreams (1-11) 2. Life Does not Always Go According to Your Dreams (12-36) 3. Life Cannot be Found Apart from the Lord of the Dreams
Life DOES actually get in the way of even the best of intentions at times, but we get to choose when to let it, IF we have a steadfast determination to remain on track. Developing a burning desire to succeed means that even when we choose to go off track slightly on our goals, so long as we can hop back on the horse and drive results once more, there is nothing wrong with living in the room of error now and then. The most important part; Do NOT let a short stint of outside circumstances ever completely derail and defeat you. Instead, let this motivate you even more to rock out and continue through to your resolve.

If we just observe what we want, what we do, what other people want, what other people do, WHAT NATURE DOES, JUST OBSERVE, JUST PAY ATTENTION, we will clearly see the goals of LIFE, what LIFE DOES. But being a HUMAN adds another special GOAL, simply because of an acquired ABILITY to sense life beyond survival...

Are bones dry? Is blood sticky? Are cells ‘rough’? Do dead cells dry up? Are stiffer (cancer) tumours more dangerous? Would stickiness on another planet be a tell-tale sign of the presence of Life? Does the act of adding and/or removing parts make things imperfect. Therefore, are all engineered artifacts rough? Does wettability depend upon both materials? Why do cells jiggle inside the matrix? Are all living environments aqueous? Can the architecture of blood vessels or cells be mathematically modeled? Is context everything? Why do some materials refuse to stick to another? How does one make something slippery or sticky? Do dryness and roughness go together? How does a wound heal itself, & how ‘heterogeneous’ is the seal? Is surface tension a competition between cohesion and adhesion? Do cells have ‘feet’ to crawl and feel? Are there many ways of sticking? How do cancer cells survive elsewhere? Does the rigidity or fluidity of membranes impact the signaling processes themselves? Can there be a master glue that sticks everything? Do all bio-molecules multitask? Might all interfacial interactions (such as adhesion) be understood via electrical impulses? Will cyborgs of the future get cancer? SynTalk thinks about these & more questions using concepts from cell biology (Dr. Nagaraj Balasubramanian, IISER, Pune), & mechanical engineering (Prof. Suman Chakraborty, IIT Kharagpur, Kharagpur).
