And, behold, the LORD passed by,
and a great and strong wind rent the mountains,
and brake in pieces the rocks before the LORD;
And after the earthquake a fire;
but the LORD was not in the fire:
and after the fire a still small voice.
1 Kings 19:12
"The Lord is very quiet in his work.
Some of the most mighty works of the Lord are done in the most quiet and unnoticeable way.
He does not always rend rocks and make the earth quake when he does a thing. He can do that when he wishes to.
And yet the Lord can do just as mighty works without anybody feeling any tremor whatever.
---Take it in the springtime, when the whole earth is in motion by the coming-up plants. There is a power infinitely beyond measurement and beyond conception, the Lord himself working, and yet all is still and quiet."
E.J.Waggoner
