If you're waiting for God to show up in the wind, the earthquake, or the fire—you might miss Him. He's often in the whisper.

Hi everyone! I'm Jamie Morrison, and welcome back to our "Holy Habits" devotional series on Silence and Solitude. Today, we're looking at one of the most dramatic stories in the Old Testament—and discovering that God's most powerful moment came in the quiet.

In this devotion, we explore:

Richard Foster's famous line: "Superficiality is the curse of our age. The desperate need today is not for a greater number of intelligent people or gifted people, but for deep people."
The story of Elijah in 1 Kings 19—fresh off a miraculous victory on Mount Carmel, yet exhausted, depressed, and hiding in a cave.
How God revealed Himself: not in the wind, not in the earthquake, not in the fire—but in a gentle whisper.
A practical lesson from family road trips: sometimes the problem isn't that the volume is too low—it's that our noise is too high.
The connection between Elijah, Moses, and Mount Sinai (Horeb)—a place of solitude and silence where God met both prophets in transformative ways.

God's not looking for holy mountains. He's looking for holy hearts with holy habits that are seeking Him. Every place can be a sanctuary when we quiet ourselves enough to listen.

Take some time today to turn down the noise and listen for the whisper.
