And there
he came to the cave,
and lodged there;
and behold,
the word
of the Lord
came to him........
[1 Kings 19:9]

[GENTLE VOICE.]
(Look up toward plaster on ceiling.)
"What.......?"
[SMALL VOICE.]
"WHAT?"
[GENTLY STILL VOICE.]
"HUH?"
[STILL VOICE.]
"LORD!
I CAN'T HEAR YOU!"
[GENTLE WHISPER.]
"SPEAK UP!"
[STILL SMALL VOICE.]
"I still don't HEAR NOTHIN'!"
[PATIENT VOICE.]
"Listen, child."
"But, I don't HEAR anyTHING!"
[GENTLE VOICE.]
"Stop looking up, child.
[PAUSE.]
I'm right Here."
***************************
But the Lord
was not in the earthquake;
and after the earthquake
a fire,
but the Lord
was not in the fire;
and after the fire
a still small voice.
[1 Kings 19:11-12]
