in the wind, in the fire

We expect to find God
in these symbols of power
in the wind, in the fire,
in the fire, in the earthquake
because God is omnipotent
filled with endless power
able to do all things

But God did not show Himself
in these primal forces
in these symbols of power;
God was in the still small voice
the whisper in the quiet,
murmuring in the dark
the calling to the prophet.
