COT:
Elijah comes out of nowhere in 1 Kings. He challenges and beats the prophets of Baal on Mt. Carmel, but then flees and goes into hiding immediately after in 1 Kings 19.

The Lord brings him to a mountain and “passes by.” There is a windstorm, an earthquake, and a fire, but the Lord was not in those. He was in the gentle whisper after the storms. In this quiet moment, the Lord spoke to Elijah and solved his problems. He told him to anoint new kings and a new prophet to assist him.

The Lord often speaks to us in the quiet moments. How can we still our minds and our lives so we can listen?

COT:
We live in a culture that tends to value masculine virtues like strength and courage, but feminine virtues are just as important. One of these is vulnerability. Vulnerability is showcased especially during Christmas, when God, who is most powerful, chooses to lower himself to the place of the most vulnerable, a baby human, living in a country oppressed by a conquering nation, to poor parents. Jesus demonstrates this virtue throughout his ministry with the climax at Calvary, when he gives himself up to his enemies, though he had legions of angels at his call. He preferred His own suffering and death at their hands over the destruction of His enemies. Vulnerability is necessary for any relationship. Ocho gave us a great quote from CS Lewis’s Four Loves about how vulnerability is a non-negotiable part of love. With those stakes, we better learn to be vulnerable.
