Listen

In order to listen, I must tune in with my ears. Sometimes if there’s a lot of noise in the room it’s hard to listen. I’ve learned that listening to loud music in the 80’s has affected my hearing today. (duh) My Dad kept telling me that I was listening to music too loud. I wonder what these “iPod kids” will hear like when they turn 50. I have a feeling that people in the hearing aid business will do well. I try really hard to hear God speak in the midst of the noise of my life. I don’t always accomplish this goal. I do believe it’s important to have some quiet time so that He can speak into my life.

The sin in my life came to the forefront of my mind this morning. I am surrendering my heart daily to the Lord. I still do stupid things that hurt His heart. I still have uncovered areas that need to be exposed. I’m still working on letting Him have all of my heart. He’s proven to me that He loves me and wants the absolute best for me. I’m still a bit stubborn and hardheaded at times and go my own way. He is so very patient with me. He is so faithful to me even when I’m unfaithful to Him. I’m so thankful that the Lord is helping me to clean up my heart and make room for more of Him!
