We in contemporary times live in an era of imposing messages on TV, The Internet, billboards, and in periodicals. They proclaim that what is important is what assaults us with repeated messages of great buys, lucrative employment, and dollar materialism. Whatever is boldly proclaimed is assumed to be value. Reports of war and violence command our constant attention. Aren¿t we missing something? The real treasures are those attained through quiet thought and willing sacrifice; as we make daily decisions, the whispers speak to us. They are the voice of faith, conviction, and of God. The prophet Elijah described the voice of God: after the fire there was the soft whisper of a voice (1 Kings 19:12 [GNT)]). Jesus speaks of whispers. Whatever you have whispered in private in a closed room will be shouted from the housetops (Luke 12:3 [GNT]). Our neglect of whispered messages results in devastated homes of modern society. Because the voice is but a whisper, we habitually assume it is unimportant and so it is unheeded. A figure of the past promised her return. Most fawned at her strange assertion. She brings sorrowful words of caution amid shallow values and hasty decisions. Who is this quiet voice of the martyrs?
