Some would say that God can only be seen in the mighty and the wonderful. There are some in the world who would rather look for Jesus in the powerful and the mighty, but that might not always be the best place to look for him. As a matter of fact Elijah had a similar issue.
He found himself in a cave, in the side of a mountain during a huge storm. Elijah thought that God was in the storm and tempest and all of the wild and amazing things in life, but he was wrong. God was only found in a small, quiet breeze - not a wind a breeze - like the gentle spring breezes that wake the plants from their wintry slumber. That's where God was found.
So the natural question must follow - where do you go to look for God? Are you an Elijah, looking for God in the HUGE things of life? Are you looking for God in the biggest buildings and the highest priced "anythings" of life?
There's nothing inherently wrong with big and lavish things in life - the issue is that we often get so distracted by the "stuff" that we fail to see God in the midst of it all.
So where is God today? Have you had the ability to enjoy a small breeze blowing through you life recently? Don't wait for the violent winds and the earth shattering events to see him - Jesus is right beside you in the still, small voice of the gentle breezes that life has to offer. Where is God - right in the midst of the ordinary and sometimes mundane parts of life...He is where His love is!
Can you hear it? Can you feel it? He's there - the breeze is blowing...
