Now, sometimes God does strange things to get people’s attention, but the fundamental way God speaks to us is by causing thoughts in our mind that we come to learn have a characteristic quality, content, and spirit about them. Think about how we speak to each other. I speak to you by making noises, and little sound waves go into your ears and bounce around on your eardrums in a pattern that your brain converts into language. The ultimate result of that act is that you have a thought. I speak to you by causing thoughts in your mind. Once you have gotten that idea clear, then it can be pretty simple to see that God has many ways of causing thoughts in our mind.

I read that as “I Lay me down to sleep” and for a short bit I was not able to, it added such clarity to something I already knew then I thought:

 

I created this and by listening to it, without words it causes thoughts in your mind…

 

 

I took this and by looking at it without words, it causes thoughts in your mind…

 

 

Sit back, close your eyes, listen to this song.  “Be Still and know that I am God” and hear his words, in other words take note of his thoughts in your mind. Be comforted, maybe moved beyond comprehension, meditate on those thoughts, receive them, let your faith be increased…

Most important understand some of those thoughts that just appear on the landscape of your mind are Revelation, God Speaking to you.  It really is as simple as that !
