How often I tell God that I want to hear Him - especially when I write. I don't want to write vain words without value. I don't want others to read my words and find emptiness. I want them (you) to find something of God in the words I write either directly or indirectly, either by lightning bolt or something more subtle like simply enjoying His creation/His creativity. This morning, I prayed my typical "I want to hear You" prayer, and His answer surprised me . . .
Listen.
Listen.
I will speak to you
In the sounds of your day.
Listen for Me
In the sounds of life.
Listen,
And you will hear Me.
So listen.
Just listen.
Listen.

Listen for Me
In the sounds of life.
Listen,
And you will hear Me.
So listen.
Just listen.
In a word... Word!
