Can You Hear Me Now


I recently read something about the noise involved in writing. Specifically anything that interfered with the receiver clearly hearing and understanding what was written. I immediately thought about my relationship with God and the noises that life can throw at you. I also thought of the cell phone commercial where the guy did everything he could do to try and get a clear signal, while he kept asking, "can you hear me now?"

When life gets hectic there is nothing like being able to hide away with God in prayer. Especially the kind of prayer in which I keep my mouth shut for most of it.

My example:

Very early in the morning, while it was still dark,
Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a
solitary place, where he prayed. (Mark 1:35)

A little voluntary solitary confinement does a person good.

Love y'all.

We have to find that quiet place not only on the outside, but the inside as well. A place where no one can hurt you, a place to block out the pain, a place to heal...I can hear you loud and clear.
