Trust God from the bottom of your heart;
don’t try to figure out everything on your own.
Listen for God’s voice in everything you do, everywhere you go;
he’s the one who will keep you on track. Psalms 3:5-6 MSG
Have you heard someone speaking and you weren’t able to make out the words that are being spoken? Have you found yourself moving closer so that you can be in better position to hear their words? Once you reach close proximity, have you ever leaned in to make sure that you are hearing every word clearly? Did you focus on their words and the cadence of their speech to understand not only their words but the feelings from their heart? The process of listening takes hearing, focus and comprehension. I believe God is speaking. He is speaking to us daily. If we move closer, we can hear His message of love to us. If we lean in we can hear that His Son Jesus Christ came that we might have life and life more abundantly. If we focus on His Word and the many stories and letters it contains to us, they illustrate how great His desire is for us to live as His blessed Children. His plan for us is for good and not evil. He desires for us to come closer, lean in and experience His love.
For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:11 NLT
