He listens!


Psalms chapter 116 verses 1 and 2.
"I love the Lord because He hears my prayers and answers them. Because He bends down and listens, I will pray as long as I breath!

Don't you love when someone is listening to you. When you have the attention of others and they are listening to what you are saying. They are not distracted by other things but want to hear what you have to say.
   No matter the words we speak out we are seeking some sort of response. It could be advice or a comment, it could be helpful or just something you let go in one ear and out the other. Most of the time we do not even realize that we are seeking some sort of feedback. We are just having casual conversation and depending on the person who is listening, their response may be sarcastic, informative or filled with caring love.
   We could also be lashing out in response to someone else's comments or we may be filled with thoughts and have no one around who cares and wants to listen. It is when our thoughts become so overwhelming that they do not go away, but cause us nothing but sadness and grief.  Day in and day out we have wants and desires. We have an unending line of bills and responsibilities. There are expectations of others and from our own emotions, to live up to the standards, we put upon ourselves.
   No matter if we are single or involved in a relationship, there are always going to be expectations, commitments, and responsibilities. Talking to others sometimes gives us the direction we need, following your own thoughts is sometimes correct, but can be a hit and miss also. Letting our thoughts build up inside us is not good. At some point we will lash out with the wrong words and create unwanted responses or reactions.
   Are you ready yet, to come to God? Are you willing to see past the walls around you, to the world that has no walls? God is ready to hear from you and through Jesus you will find a breath of fresh air. Just what you need. It does not matter what your life is like. You may think it is so mixed up and so far from help, but you could not be more mistaken.
   Jesus is there to help you up. and not just that, but to bring you into the family of God. It is there that you will be forever loved and guided by God Himself. He never gets tired from hearing you speak. He is always ready to guide you. And He does answer you. It is through His actions that you see His touch upon your life. And that brings you back for more. You have found a place with someone who loves and cares about you. And you never want to be anywhere else. You are thankful.
   It is your want to be with God that strengthens you and gives you the energy to follow after His guidance. The thoughts that filled your head turn from confusion into trust and gratitude. The joy you are feeling shows in the words you speak and your love for all you are doing. God is with you. Jesus has brought you into His flock and the Holy Spirit fills you with amazement, love and overwhelming joy. Not just for a moment but for every moment of everyday. Your thoughts never could have imagined the life Jesus gives, but you are here now and God's love and peace, is real.
   Thank you Father for Jesus. Thank you for listening to our prayers and praises. 😊
