Simply Listening by Patsy Lewis
From
the moment the alarm clock goes off, you hear an endless stream
of messages -- music on the radio, TV commercials, stressed-out
coworkers, the never-ending clamor of your kids. By the time
evening rolls around, there's barely a moment to say a quick
prayer before falling asleep and starting the whole process over
again.
We seek God's
direction in our prayers, but in our busy, noisy world it's easy
to focus on the part we play in the conversation -- confession,
asking, praise, thanksgiving, and intercession -- and neglect to
really listen to Him. But as His children, God wants to interact
and communicate with us. And He has powerful messages to deliver
if we can learn to listen.
If you're ready
to quiet your heart and discover a new vitality in your prayer
life, spend some time Simply Listening. These short
devotionals will help you develop and enhance your spiritual
listening skills and show you how to approach your prayer with
anticipation as you spend time listening for God's voice. |
