Recently I was with a group sharing fun, food and fellowship, otherwise known as
"living, laughing, and eating chocolate". Right in the middle of sharing an
experience, it seemed as though there were 5 other conversations going on, so I
stopped talking, thinking.......it's obvious that what I'm saying is of no
interest to the others.......when one person leaned in, made eye contact with me
and said, please finish your story.....I'M LISTENING! In that instant I sensed
the Holy Spirit whisper....I'M ALWAYS LISTENING! It washed over me......how
many times have we just felt like NO ONE is listening.....we aren't even sure if
God is hearing our prayers, and JESUS leans in and says, "go ahead, tell
Me.....I'M LISTENING!" In fact scripture says "he inclines His ear to
me."
Psalm 116:2
For he hath inclined his ear unto me, and I will call
upon him during [all] my days.
Think about all of the conversations going
on, all the stories being shared with Jesus RIGHT NOW, and yet HE HEARS WHAT I'M
SAYING!!! How incredible is that......I finished my story, and although the
whole group did not hear the end of my story, the ONE that it was intended
for, heard it and their heart was touched and my heart was touched because I was
reminded......that HE IS LEANING IN TO HEAR WHAT I HAVE TO SAY!
