A few years ago my husband and I came up with a list of 15 Things You’ll Never Hear God Say. It was so well received that I’ve been expanding on it for the past couple years.
This list of mine reminds me, when I start to put my hope in people, that there is only One who will never disappoint or let me down. It also reminds me that I, too, am guilty of saying some of these things to others and disappointing them, as well.
I’m sharing this list with you this morning to remind you of how perfect the Living God is…and how extraordinary it is that He wants to have a relationship with you and me:
Psalm 18:30 says “As for God, his way is perfect…” and I think you’ll agree as you read through these 25 Things You’ll Never Hear God Say:
- I’m busy — can I get back to you?
- Oops
- I forgot
- I’m sorry
- I don’t know
- What did you say?
- Sorry I’m late
- I was wrong
- I’ll see you later
- You did what??
- I really don’t have time
- But I meant to
- Don’t take it personally but I need my space
- I didn’t mean it that way
- Why Me?
- I’m running a bit behind
- My bad
- I wasn’t expecting that
- I’m tired
- I’d rather not hear about it
- This isn’t a good time
- I’ve changed through the years
- I’ve had it with you
- It’s best if we don’t talk anymore
- I don’t know you anymore
Did some more come to mind as you were reading through this list? If so, I’d love for you to share them with me and my readers in the comment section below. Add them to the list below and let’s keep it going….
You don’t need me, You got this!
Oh, that’s a great one, Wonda! I’m definitely adding it to the list. Thank you.
You are no good! He will never say that.
Yes, Marianela. I’m so glad that, through our faith in Christ, God sees us as spotless and righteous and perfect as His Son, Jesus. Thank you for adding to the list.
This is too much,I can’t take it anymore
🙂
Hmmm I changed my mind.
That’s another good one, Juanita. Thank you. 🙂
Such a great list! Although humbling…I see myself in there:-( One I heard lately, “I need to put myself first.”
That’s a great one, Chery. God will never tell us “You need to put yourself first.” Thanks for adding to the list. 🙂
Even though this was posted several years ago, this was on my heart and I began writing them down. Then I did a search and found this post which blessed me. So I thought I’d add a few more from my list.
Blessings,
• I wish I knew.
• What do you want now?
• Well, that came as a surprise.
• Talk to the hand.
• I give up.
• You got yourself in this mess, now get yourself out.
Thank you so much, Renee, for your additional thoughts on this topic. He truly is The One who Never Disappoints.
